Dear Parents,
This is a reminder about quizzes this week. Reading quizzes to complete Unit 1 will be given this week as well as a Science quiz on Wednesday and a Social Studies quiz on Friday. Students have completed their class Advent wreath and this week will learn about creating a Nativity scene and listen to certain Bible stories related to the symbols on our Jesse Tree. These are all Advent practices in preparation for Christmas that students need to learn. Next week I will send home another set of quizzes to be signed. Please don't lose them in the Christmas frenzy.
