This will be our last post for 2017. I wanted to share some photos I took of the children playing dreidel with their buddy class. For Hanukkah gelt we used Starbust fruit chews because they do not contain, nor are they manufactured in a plant that uses peanuts/tree nuts. It seemed like the children thoroughly enjoyed this experience, and all of them were very kind to their 2nd grade buddies.
I will not be sending home a Weekly Reflection on Friday. Please have your child share all of the exciting things we did this week, including making gigantic snowflakes to decorate our room. Following multiple step directions proved to be difficult for some, but for the most part, the snowflakes look beautiful.
Rehearsals resume on Tuesday, January 2nd. It is the first day back from Winter break. Please make sure your child is dropped off on time for the morning rehearsal and picked up on time from the afternoon or evening rehearsal. Things are going along well, and I am really enjoying my time with your children. They are an amazing group of thespians, with big hearts and encouragement for each other.
I wanted to take this opportunity to wish each of you a very Merry Christmas and/or a Happy New Year. I am looking forward to working with your children during their last 6 months of elementary school! Take care, Lester Betor & Class
