Apear Holds Xmas Prooram
by Apaar school

|
Tuesday evening. We had chora
readings with the Christmas Story
given as a choral reading by the
fourth grade and illustrated by fig
ures and scenes on the flannel
board. We thank Mrs. Gordon for
the use of her very fine scenes and
figures. We also had recitations,
a play, twirling, square dancing
tumbling and rhythm band.
We always have a hard time
hurrying too, out of square dance
dresses into clothes for tWirling
and tumbling so our audience won't
have to just sit and wait, so this
time we ran three numbers on the
tape recorder to fill in the time.
Susan Harrington, Deer Lodge,
played piano solo, and the upper
grade girls sang Holy Night and
Carmen Carmela.
The mothers made cookies and
fruit cake and served coffee after
the program. Last year we made
some of the cookies at school.
Or17IS MAS CARDS
We have been making Christmas
cards to send to friends of Apgar
school. We always start by think
ing we'll send just a few cards, but
we always think of more and more
people we want to send to. About
two years ago we sent around 100
cards and we went over to the
post office to mail them. Mrs. Gibb |
showed us how the post office
worked, and we thought it very
nice of her because she is so busy |
at Christmas time.
We were glad when Supt. Full
ton came to visit Apgar school last
week. He watched us practice for
our Christmas program, listened
to the first, third and fourth grad
ers read and to the upper grades
when they had English.
Some of the children discovered
about 10 eagles wheeling around
in the sky, and we rushed out
to watch them. 1t is the first time
we have been able to take a visitor
out and show them 10 eagles from
our school yard. We enjoyed !
Supt. Fulton's visit.
MRS. HUNT VISITS {
Mrs. Gordon's mother, Mrs.
Hunt, Spokane, came to visit our {
school the other day. We were !
oracticing our program. The chill {
iren left before Mrs. Hunt could
ell them she enjoyed it, so she
wrote on the board "Thank you
hildren for your entertainment. |
You did so well, 1 enjoyed it q
o much and will always remem- S
'er how nice you looked" Thank F
'ou, Mrs. Hunt. Mrs. Hunt return n
