Hi Second Grade Families,
Tomorrow morning we will be presenting a short skit to introduce our Service Project, "Winter Warmth." We will be making announcements about this service project throughout the month of October. This is a shared project with the third grade class. The announcement schedule between the classes will be as follows:
9/26-2nd (Mon.)
10/3-3rd
10/7-2nd (Fri.)
10/17-3rd
10/24-2nd (Mon.)
As I talked with the students in class on Friday, each student who would like to participate, will get a chance at least once throughout the month. As for tomorrow...
Emily will be our "freezing friend" who is in need of some "winter warmth."
Kate will inform everyone of what to donate.
Connor will tell them what we are aiming for.
Alexis will tell everyone when this starts.
*Each time it's our turn we will do a similar announcement with updates and different students from our classroom. I'll let you know when it's your turn, if you want to participate by speaking at the Morning Assembly.
ALL STUDENTS, FOR TOMORROW: If you are planning to bring something to keep Emily warm (to donate) tomorrow you can also be a part of the skit! When Emily comes out of the classroom and stops on the grass in front of the student council you can come up and help her put on ONE item that you brought. I'll go first so you can see what you should do, but remember what we practiced in class on Friday aslo. We need to start with the smaller things first, so take a look at what you brought to donate and watch to see when a good time to add something would be. We want to keep adding items to Emily until we can't see HER at all, only the things that she is wearing because so many people have donations to give her. When you are ready to give her something, walk up to the front after the last person and say something to her as you put it on. You could say something like, "I hope this keeps you warm." or "I hope you'll be warm with this." or "I hope this helps!" Be creative with what you want to say. After Emily thanks you or replies to your donation, please say "YOU'RE WELCOME!" nice and loud so ALL can hear!
Don't worry if you can't make a donation tomorrow. We will be doing this service project the whole month of October, so you have plenty of time to find that Winter Warmth you are willing to part with.
Thank you,
Mrs. Wall
