Santa Letters and Postponed Authors' Celebration

Hello Families!

I hope you all are enjoying your holiday break.  We will still have our classroom Christmas party on Friday, January 4th.  We will still carry out the classmate gift exchange. 

I've decided to postpone the Authors' Celebration that was supposed to take place on December 21st to February.  Everything that we were going to read and share was based on Christmas, and I think the time has passed!  I still want to share with you the letters the students wrote and were going to read aloud.  To get the students thinking of others throughout the holiday season, I asked that each student write a letter to Santa asking Santa to bring something for someone else.  The students did a great job, and the letters were very sweet!   Look below to find your child's letter...

Dear Santa,
Please bring Cooter my dog a lot of dog bones or cow bones.  It doesn't matter.  He just wants bones.  I hope you get it to the right house because last year you sent it to the wrong house.
From,
Izzy

Dear Santa,
Can you give Trixie a bigger bed?  Because Trixie has lots of toys.  That would make her bark.  Thank you.
Sincerely,
Riley

Dear Santa,
Can you bring Mya a bone because she likes them.  She likes to chew on them.  I think she wants a lot.  Even a lot of treats.  She wants a bunch.  Thanks Santa!
From,
Luke

Dear Santa,
Please bring Sander a drawing kit.  I want hime to be an even better artist.  All of his paper is probably gone.  I think he wants to be a better artist too.  He would really like it.
Sincerely,
Peyton

Dear Santa,
Please bring my aunt's dog Rowdy a bone.  Because he is too rowdy.  A bone will settle him down.  He needs a bone.  He's so rowdy he tried to bite my hand off so please bring a bone! Please write back.
Sincerely,
Mason

Dear Santa,
Please bring Sophie a bone that she'll chew on.  Because she's a little picky.  So is Angel.  Maybe bring more things for her.  And she doesn't really ever chew on the green one.  She'll be happy.
Sincerely,
Chloe

Dear Santa,
Please give Luke a football.  Please give Luke a pair of skis.  Luke has been awesome this year.  Luke might be in the ski club.  Luke likes football.
Love,
Brock

Dear Santa,
Please bring Rosy something to chew on because she chews on everything.  Because she gets bored.  She will be happy.  She might want something else.  Thank you Santa. 
Your friend,
Kimmy

Dear Santa,
Will you bring my dog a bone? I don't like when my dog chews my toys.  Thank you Santa.
Sincerely,
Ava

Dear Santa,
Can you give my grandpa a Vikings football?  Because he really needs a football.  And I am just being a normal kid.  He loves the Vikings.  So do I, but I prefer the Texans.  Do you have a favorite football team?  My Grandpa loves the Vikings!  Thank you Santa.
Sincerely,
John

Dear Santa,
Bring a toy for Dixie.  My dog loves toys.  My dog loves Santa.  Bring Dixie an Angry Bird.  Dixie loves Angry Birds.  Bring Dixie a bone.  Dixie loves bones.
