November 19th - November 23rd
We are learning a lot about making inferences from text and pictures as we read. Everyone did very well on there health test last Thursday! Health Fest was also a success. Thank you to all the parents who sent in the healthy treats! In the future, I will post my blog on Fridays. This will give you the entire week-end to check my blog.

A Special Holiday Project! Each year Prairieview runs a service project around the holidays. Our efforts will benefit two organizations: a cancer family and a children's shelter. Each classroom at Prairieview has a family or an individual that is in need at this time. In addition to the cancer families, we will also be making donations to LutherBrook, a shelter for less fortunate boys and girls.
This year our class has a very special family. Our family includes:
~Jason(cancer patient) -7 years old –male
~Mom
~Dad
Sadly, Jason has cancer. Not only does this family struggle with the stress of treatments and illness, but they are less fortunate than us financially, too. In order to make this a special holiday, we have “adopted” them. If you could send in a NEW, not used, present for one or more of the family members that would be greatly appreciated.
Directions:
*Please wrap the gifts if they are not food items.
*LABEL the item with what it is with a post it note.
*Label who it is for
Some ideas for NEW (not used) gifts include, but are not limited to:
Jason: (age7) age appropriate games/toys, books, crafts, winter hat/gloves, sports gear, etc.
Mom: bath and body, perfume, jewelry, candles, kitchen accessories, picture frames/albums, gift certificates, gift baskets, slippers, etc.
Dad: tools, sports gear, tasty treats (not home baked), kitchen accessories, gift certificates, gift baskets, slippers, etc.
Gift certificates to consider:
Jewel, Best Buy, Kohl’s, Wal-Mart, Target, Toys R Us, K-Mart, Sears, JC Penney’s, Carson Pierre Scott, Chili’s, TGIFridays, Subway, McDonalds, Burger King, ETC.
Our classes gifts will be delivered before Christmas along with a freshly cut tree donated by Strong Landscaping.
Gift for LutherBrook: We are accepting Cash or Target gift cards in any denomination. This goes towards gifts on the children's wish list and toward a special holiday party! This is greatly appreciated!
Thanks for your support!
