Happy New Year!

Mitten Sewing 2009

Our mitten sewing was a great success! The students did an excellent job securing their snowman on with 2 buttons and doing the loop stitch around the edge of their mitten.

Thanks for all the donations of the materials needed for our project! We also want to thank Mrs. Hahn, Mrs. Hale, Mrs. Frasca, and Mrs. Brennan for assisting in the sewing process. Our mittens will be displayed in our classroom until Wednesday. The students will bring them home stuffed with the mitten stuffers they brought in to share with their classmates.

Progress Reports and Mitten Sewing

Progress reports were sent out Friday - please sign and return by Monday.


Mitten Sewing Project - our fourth graders will be sewing a big mitten in class on Thursday, December 17th from 1-2. We are looking for parent helpers to come in and assist in this fun holiday craft. If you are unable to come in, we will need helpers at home to cut out the snowmen and thread needles. We are also looking for donations of 9"x12" felt (in any color) and large buttons.

The students will bring in a little mitten stuffer for all 15 students so they can receive a "little something" from each student. Ideas for mitten stuffers are: pencils, erasers, etc. I will be stuffing the mittens for the students to bring home on Wednesday, December 23rd.
