Thank you to all the parents who sent in goodies to decorate the gingerbread houses and to all the parents who came into help.  Everyone had a great time!

Composting

This afternoon Megan from UVM talked to the students at UMS about how we will be separating our lunch trash after December break.  Ask your child about the different colored buckets and what goes in them.

December Fun!

It is only Wednesday but we have had something fun everyday.  On Monday, the CHS chorus came over to UMS and sang holiday songs.  Everyone truly enjoyed this!  On Tuseday, we read our first gingerbread story and ate gingerbread cookies from Pepperidge Farms.  Today, we made our own gingerbread cookies, decorated them and then of course ate them. 



         

         

         

         

         

"Inside Out" Movie

In guidance, students at UMS have been studying and learning about the zones of regulation.  As a fun way to connect to what they’ve learned so far classroom teachers will be showing the movie ‘Inside Out’ either the Monday or Tuesday before Christmas vacation.  This movie is rated PG.  Please let your child’s classroom teacher know if you have any concerns.  Also, if you are interested in reading the movie synopsis visit this link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2096673/plotsummary
