Congratulations Room 47!

We have filled our Marble Jar and the students have voted to watch the movie, Maleficent as their reward on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break! 

 Please let me know if you would prefer for your child NOT to see this movie - thank you!

They are also allowed to bring a sleeping bag/blanket, pillow, and small stuffed animal if they would like to.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all!
