             GOD'S BLESSINGS
          Welcome to our Room 204 Family   
  Welcome to the 2019-2020 School Year!!  I am looking forward to a  WONDERFUL YEAR!!  Woo Hoo!!  We're in Grade 2!!
  
  I hope everyone had a wonderful and relaxing Thanksgiving!
  Today Dec. 1, begins the season of Advent.  Advent is a time of waiting and preparing for Jesus' coming.  Doing extra good deeds is a perfect way to prepare for Jesus' coming on Christmas Day.  Our class will be doing just this.  Each day leading up to Christmas, the students will write down a "good deed", something they did to help out at home or somewhere else, away form school.  They should write it in their notebook and share it the next day at school.  They will then color an ornament and place it on their tree hanging up in the classroom.  By Christmas Day,  they will have a tree decorated "with wonderful memories" of their good deeds preparing for Christmas.
  
  How are you preparing for Jesus' coming?
  
  Have a wonderful week!
