International night:  This will be in February, and our class will be studying Italy.  Please let me know if you have any items from Italy that we could have on display at our booth.  Also, we are looking for volunteers to prepare foods from Italy to hand out at our booth.  You can earn volunteer hours for cooking.  Also, we will be needing parents to work at the booth (again---volunteer hours).

Attention 8th graders: We will be reading To Kill a Mockingbird after we finish Anne Frank.  You will need to purchase your own copy of the book because we will annotate it.  This means you will need to write in it.  Please do this soon.  You will need to have your book after Thanksgiving.  You can purchase it at Barnes and Noble or online.
