Dec. 22--Class Celebration

December 22--Class Celebration

On Wednesday, December 22, we will be making candy trains. Each child will need to bring 2 full size candy bars(not king size). Snickers, Milky Ways, and Three Musketeers work best. Everyone will also need to cover a piece of cardboard with foil to carry the train. If you would be able to donate frosting, rope licorice, pinwheel candies (red/white or green/white mints), stick pretzels, and small candy to help decorate the trains, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you for your help.
Also on this date, we will be exchanging presents. Each child is to make a gift or find a present without spending more than $1. We’ll have a White Elephant gift exchange. To make this fun, it’s important to have a variety of presents but nothing that might hurt someone’s feelings if they receive it. Please wrap the present and bring it to school by Wednesday morning. Thank you for helping make this a fun day for us!
