Jingle Bell Craft Fair
The Jingle Bell Fair will be happening this Saturday, December 9th from 10am - 1pm in the school gym. While this is a fun event for families to attend with their children, we couldn’t make it happen without the help of volunteers! We are in need of more people to help run craft booths during the fair, as well as help with setup and cleanup before and after the fair.
Are you planning to attend with your family? Would you or another member of your family be able to spend an hour helping out? Do you know any Mulready alumni who would like to come back and help out? High school students in need of volunteering hours? Any bit of help is greatly appreciated! You can sign up for a volunteer spot here: volunteersignup.org/XFQXX We greatly appreciate your help making Jingle Bell a success!
Coffee and Cocoa Staff Appreciation
Our annual “Coffee and Cocoa Staff Appreciation'' holiday event will take place Friday, December 15th. This gives us a chance to provide our hardworking staff with an array of breakfast foods, beverages, and festive treats as a token of our appreciation. We are asking parents for help providing these items. Sign up here if you are able to contribute: volunteersignup.org/W4Y84
Certain items may be dropped off at school earlier that week but please look next to the item on the sign up form for specific timeframes. PLEASE only bring perishables in the morning of the event and all items should be at school by 8 am on December 15th.
Thank you for your help in celebrating our Mulready teachers and staff!

FRIDAY SCIENTIST
Each week a student in Mrs. Regh's classroom chooseS an experiment. The student follows a format for a lab report and presents it to the class. The student then performs the experiment and discusses the results with the class.
This week in Mrs. Regh's class, a girl made a lava lamp with a water and oil mixture that she dropped an alka seltzer to the mix. The reason this worked is because the oil floats on top of the water because it is lighter than water. The food coloring has the same density as the water so it sinks through the oil and mixes with the water. When the alka seltzer is added, it sinks to the bottom then starts to dissolve. As it dissolves it makes gas, carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is lighter than water so it floats to the top. The air bubbles bring some colored water with them to the top. When the air comes out of the colored water blob, the water gets heavy again and sinks. It does this over and over again until the tablet is completely dissolved.
RECYCLING INK CARTRIDGES
The Kindergarten and 1st grade Girl Scouts are doing a recycling project and want to recycle your empty printer ink cartridges. A collection box will be located inside Mulready Elementary School from December to March, starting with the Jingle Bell Fair. Their goal is to keep 200 cartridges from decaying and leaking toxins in landfills, thank you for helping them with their goal.
