Dear Parents,
Our next field trip is Thursday,
December 22. We will be driving to West High Pool for some water fun.
Chaperones, I need a copy of your current valid driver’s license, a copy of
your current vehicle registration, and a copy of your proof of insurance with
the minimum $100,000/$300,000 bodily injury and $25,000 property damage
included on the copy by tomorrow. I appreciate your cooperation with this new
district policy. If you haven’t turned in the copies you can bring all your
information to the office and they will make copies for you. Thanks! Chaperones
please meet in Room 177 by 12:15. We will leave the school at 12:30 and return
by 2:45. If your child requires or you prefer your child to use a booster seat
and you are not driving, please send in your child’s booster seat on Thursday
morning. Your child also needs to bring his or her own swimsuit, towel, goggles
(optional), and plastic bag (for the wet swimsuit). Don’t worry if your child
is not a swimmer. Students will all be given a life jacket, unless they choose
to take the swimming test. We have use of the slide and most of the students
stay together in the shallow end any way and have a good time together. I want
everyone to have a good time and not to worry if you can’t swim. It will still
be a lot of fun. I will be getting in the water this year for the first time in
many years. I am not a great swimmer and I will be bringing my life vest as
well and maybe my duck floaty and water wings. Let’s have fun swimming!
Denali Holiday Night is Friday,
December 16 at 7:00 p.m. If you can bring cookies for the event, it would be
much appreciated. I hope you can join us for a night of music, food, holiday
stories and more!
As
a team this holiday season, the primary wing is going to do a community service
project that focuses on giving back to the community. Students will be
putting together Blessing Bags for the homeless that will include items such as
toothbrushes, soap, hand warmers, socks, hats and gloves. Our class is
responsible for providing 200 travel- sized toothpastes. If you would like
to contribute to this project, please send them in by next Friday, December
16. We are trying to make about 200 bags to donate. Students will
be stuffing the bags on the afternoon of December 16th. Thank you
for your support.
I have decided that there will be
no homework for the remainder of the year. We will resume homework in January
when we return from the break. You can still take time to read every night, relax
and enjoy some family time.
The students have had a great week
working on apostrophes for contractions, spelling, math operations, problem
solving, math facts, reading comprehension, penmanship, reading, writing
letters, pronouns, learning about momentum and problem solving with Hot Wheels
cars and racetracks, and more.
If you have
any questions or concerns, please e-mail me at moyer_craig@asdk12.org or call or
write me a note.
Sincerely,
Craig Moyer
