Feast Week

This will be a very short and very busy 2 days at school. Today we will make homemade butter. All we do is shake it in jars. It is fun and makes great butter to eat tomorrow.

Tomorrow will be a very busy time. Since we will be cooking posse stew in a roaster, we won't need to put it on until first thing tomorrow morning. We will also be making fruit salad, and pumpkin pudding. If you volunteered to help tomorrow can you come when your child does at 8:20. It will take a few minutes to get started but not many. I like to do the kids in a rotation so each one gets a chance to help with everything.

We will also need help with setting up tables, serving, and cleaning up.

We will probably start to eat at about 11:00. If you are coming to eat with your child you will want to be there by then.

There will be NO HOMEWORK this week. It wouldn't hurt if your child read once or twice over vacation but that is up to you. I have found that books get left at Grandma's etc, so they won't be coming home. Nothing in the agenda either. We will return to normal schedule next week.

Thanks to all of you who help me so much. You are making my life so much easier.

Have a great Thanksgiving! Be safe if you are traveling.
