Today was a fun day! We completed our angel decorations for the residents at the Linden Grove Nursing Home. Our 7th grade buddies came in yesterday to help us start the project by painting the paper plates. Then today, they were back again and we cut the plates, formed them into angels with wings, attached the head and halo, and put some sparkly glitter on. I wouldn't be surprised if you're finding glitter on your kids until New Year's Day! It got a little crazy with 30 some kids in here all playing with glitter. I feel for Mr. Kurt and Mr. Ed. We did our very best to clean up, but as you can imagine, it is no easy task.
We're looking forward to singing for the residents. It will really be a special way to head into our holiday.
Some students have come home with books that they should be reading. The title may either be "Tam and Sam in the Orange Grove" or "Sam and Tam". Please take some time with your child to read these over. We are also working on them in class.
