Classroom Chatter
I am greatly touched by everyone's thoughtfulness and generosity for the adopted family gifts. We collected so many presents for our "adopted" family and the family shelter. Take a look at what we were able to collect.
The Csorba family was "elfed" this week. Check out this website for a good laugh!

Monday morning, 3rd grade will go bowling for PE. Students are allowed to purchase snacks at the snack bar. You can send your child with money to school Monday to make a snack purchase. Students need to make sure they wear gym shoes to school that day. They'll be bowling in them.
Friday, Prairieview is off to the Tivoli to see The Grinch as an all school field trip. Remember to bring a sack lunch. We will be eating before we go to the movies. Happy Holidays!!!
