Tomorrow-Tomorrow

Hi there-
First of all, Social Studies homework/nightly writing tonight is a spin-off from a game we played today in groups of 3. It was based on the tough life and survival in the Jamestown Colony back in the 1620's. Many things happened to them on their through the game. They are to write a letter telling about their life. Also for free $ tomorrow at check in have them tell you one thing that happened to them.

Santa's Workshop is tomorrow. We will be going at 9:30. Students may shop if they choose to. Everything is $1.00.
Also students will be able to shop at Hankins' Store tomorrow. I have purchased many things as my gift to them for the holidays and they are going to use their fake money to buy them. The student with the most money goes first and then down the line. They will want to spend all their money because after the New Year we will start over.
Also, they are to be practicing those states & capitals. I noticed today that many of the kids don't know them all too well. I can't stress enough the importance of this. It will be a big part of their Social Studies grade.
Have a great night.
