Great Idea for Birthdays
Today was Meredith's birthday and she donated a very popular book to our class library to celebrate it. What a great way to celebrate in the era of non-food celebrations at school. It's also a great lesson in giving when birthdays can so quickly become about getting. I loved this idea. Thank for the donation to our ever growing classroom library!

I can't believe it's December!
Let me begin by saying, I can't believe it's already December! Wow, is time flying by. We only have two more weeks of school before winter break starts; which also means I have just two weeks until I'm on a plane to New Zealand to spend Christmas with my in-laws (yes, my husband is from NZ)!
With that said, we are well underway with our business unit and on track for our grand opening of The Chrystall Miner Mall on Tuesday 12/16. From now until then, your child should be working on making their products to sell at the mall. Remember, parent shopping is on Thursday 12/18 from 11:15-11:45.
Focus Group
As we learned about starting our own business this week, we learned about focus groups and why a entrepreneur might hold one. Today our 2nd grade buddies from Ms. Weck's class came to our room to act as a focus group. The kids were able to show their products off and ask each 2nd grader a few questions to help them improve their products. It was a great activity and learning experience today!

DYNAMITE
Today we earned the final letter in the word DYNAMITE to earn another class reward. In case you forgot, we earn a letter to spell a word every time we get complimented for great hallway behavior! We came up with a list of rewards and voted at the end of the day... On Monday 12/8 all students in our class will be allowed to bring in one stuffed animal to spend the day learning with them. Please help remind your child on Monday morning so they don't miss out! I'm so proud of their hallway behavior and the compliments they receive!Focus Group

Mystery Reader
Today Mrs. Moody was our mystery reader! However instead of reading us a story, she told us about her job as a dog trainer. There was even a great activity for the kids planned! It was really interesting and we all learned quite a bit about dogs! THANK YOU!
