Secret Person Project

In celebration of the holiday season, students have chosen a secret person to shower with small gifts and kindnesses. Each child in our class filled out a survey about their interests and likes – your child’s secret person’s survey was attached to a letter that went home this past Friday. This survey is meant to help your child to create and select gifts for their secret person.
Each day we would like your child to do something nice for their secret person. In addition to this kindness, we have planned a list of gifts for the students to share with each other. If for any reason your child is unable to participate, please let me know asap.
Please remind your child that the identity should remain a secret until we reveal on Friday. Also, please bring your gift in a bag so that no one can see how it’s wrapped.
Happy Holidays!
