For December, we will be learning about God’s Special Message for Mary, John the Baptist is Born, Jesus the Savior is Born, The Wise Men and God Keeps Jesus Safe From Herod in Jesus Time.  In Math, we will be strengthening our number concepts.   In Reading, we will be focusing on the letter sounds, sounding out words, and rhyming. 

December Book-It Goal:  18 books    

Please remember in the winter months if snow is on the ground, boots and snow pants need to be worn to go outside on the snow.   Please also remember to include hats, mittens, and an extra pair of socks(they tend to get wet quickly).  PLEASE LABEL ALL ITEMS WITH YOUR CHILD”S NAME AT HOME.   Please plan to have a large cloth grocery bag for their items.  Bags will be sent home each night.  Thank you for your help. 

Many of you will be reading a book with your families called The Family Under the Bridge.  Just like them, we know that there are people who don’t have homes of their own.
Mr. Bob’s Under the Bridge is an organization that wants to help people in need. St. Paul will be taking in donations for this community organization until Wednesday, December 15th. Mr. Bob’s needs men’s, women’s, and children’s clothing, winter gear, and hygiene projects, like soap and toothpaste. Donations will be accepted in the south wing entrance, the main school entrance. We hope to fill the barrels!
