Parents,
Christmas time is here! I’ve attached the flyer for our Christmas Program. I am so excited to see everything come together, and this year I have something extra special planned to end our program—aside from the 6th-grade performance.
Below is what each grade will need in order to make our program successful. If your child has a speaking part, I will send that to you directly. Several students have expressed that they’d prefer not to have a speaking part, and that is perfectly fine—as long as you are okay
with it as well.
Costume Needs by Grade:
K3–K4: Hot Chocolate (brown outfit)
K5: Reindeer (brown outfit)
1st–2nd: Christmas Pajamas
3rd–4th: Christmas Pajamas
5th: Christmas Pajamas
6th: Elves
6th Grade Performance Outfit:
-
Boys: Black shirt, black pants, Santa hat
-
Girls: Black shirt, black pants, red or green tassel fringe skirt, Santa hat headband
(I should have plenty of the headbands available in my room.)
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email me.
