Gobble, Gobble!

Dear Parents,

The annual Thanksgiving Luncheon will be on Wednesday, November 14.  I hope you will be able to join us! You are welcome to enjoy the lovely weather at the picnic tables with you child, but please only take YOUR child outside.  I am grateful to be a part of this amazing Canyon Creek community and your child’s fourth grade teacher.

Our class is looking forward to sharing their poetry with you!  Coffee House Poetry is one of my favorite days of fourth grade. Please be sure your child is memorizing their mentor poem using intonation and expression to add interest to his/her poem.  Please mark your calendar so you can attend our class’ presentation of your child’s positively passionate poetry! Our time to present is November 29 from 9:30 to 10:45am.

Donations Please
For an upcoming project, our class needs 1 jar of grape jelly, 1 bag of chocolate chips, 20 gluten free rice cakes, 1 jar of marshmallow creme, 20 small plates, and 20 plastic knives.  I have created a SignUp Genius for you to sign up to bring in any of these items.  Thank you!
