Odds and Ends Before Break

A few reminders for the last day before break:

1. Don’t forget to return your child's signed report card envelope. Make sure you take the report card out before returning.
2. Tomorrow is a class T-shirt day so send them in their Stanford shirt!
3. Students were given Chicken Dinner tickets today in their mailboxes. The dinner is January 20th. Any sold/unsold tickets can be returned to school.
4. The all school panoramic photo is displayed at the school. Laminated photos are available for $16. Make checks payable to Lifetouch.
5. We are taking orders for the 2011/2012 CA Yearbook. Cost is $18 per book. Orders are due by January 11.
6. We made (or attempted to make) model volcanoes in class today. The salt/flour/water dough consistency came out a little more sticky for some of us than planned. That being said, if the students want to try again at home over break the recipe is down below. I will send little cups (to act as the conduit of the volcano) home with kids who want to try it again. Other than the dough, you just need vinegar and baking soda to create the explosion. :)

Enjoy your break!
