Dear families,

• Just a reminder that the fourth grade classes are going to the SUU Women's Basketball game at the college tomorrow at 1:00. It is freee for the kids. Please DON'T send any concession stand money.

• The spelling list on the gold paper is our next spelling list. As we teachers reviewed the mistakes made on the previous spelling lists, we found that the students were not sure of the ending spelling patterns for the "L" sound, so we are having the kids practice that skill.

• Tomorrow the December book report and home-reading-time papers for December will be coming home.

• An optional homework (to tease the memorization brainiacs) will be coming in the next day or two. The assignment is to memorize the entire poem of "T'was The Night Before Christmas." We will be working on it in class, but more effort than that will be needed to have it memorized by the last day before Christmas break. The children who accomplish this will earn a candy bar.
