* Please send your child in clothes that can get messy and stained with paint,including a warm jacket because we will be outside.  They will wear these all day.  Also, please remember to sunscreen your children at home as we will be out in the sun all afternoon.  
* We appreciate all those who have volunteered to help us on paint day, and we could use a couple more.  If you are available from 11:30-3, we would love to have your help supervising a small group of students as they paint.  Please let us know if you plan on coming.
*We are asking for a $3 donation to help pay for the paint and if you have some old paint brushes (house paint brush size) you could send with your child that day we would really appreciate it!  THANK YOU so much and thanks for already sending in containers to put the paint in!  We could still use some large appliance/furniture cardboard boxes as well.  

Here is a list of the students and their parts:

Favorite Holiday Recipe Homework


Friday, December 12th is the last day for your child to receive credit for bringing in the recipe for their favorite holiday treat/dessert.  We will be working on our project with them all through next week.  The students do not need to bring in the prepared treat-just the recipe for it.  They also need to be marked with their name.
