Happy Holidays!
Yesterday the first and third graders watched the classic Dr. Seuss story, How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Then we enjoyed cookies and cocoa at the end of the day. Thank you PTO for organizing this yummy treat! Have a wonderful and safe holiday break!

3rd Grade Buddies
Last Friday the first graders got together with their third grade reading buddies. They made a fun reindeer craft and played dreidel together. We appreciate our third grade friends showing us how to play this fun game.

Sing Along and Craft Fair
It was so nice to see so many families at our Sing Along and Craft Fair yesterday afternoon. The opening song with the lanterns was amazing! Thank you for all of your support at our craft fair. We sold out within 20 minutes and made $145! Lily C and Savannah will join the other shoppers tomorrow morning to buy gifts for our adopted families. This is such a wonderful UID tradition!

Counting Strips
The first graders are busy writing numbers on counting strips during math workshop. They are practicing writing as many numbers in counting order as they can without reversing digits or transposing them (writing digits in the wrong order).  Their counting strips are getting very long!


Sharing
The first graders were very excited to start sharing time last week! They are enjoying the pictures, books, drawings, and special things their friends are bringing each day. Thank you for helping your child find a special item to share on his/her day.




Eclipse Glasses   We collected over 5,000 eclipse glasses! We are so thankful for our UCS Community!
