Valentine Boxes
On Thursday February 14th, we will be having our
Valentine’s Day Celebration! Your kiddo is invited to create a Valentine’s box
at home and then bring it to school on that day. I will be sending more information home about the party as time gets
closer.
At Home Reading
It is very
important that your kiddo reads nightly at home. If you would like to have books sent home on
your child’s level, just let me know! I
have been hesitant to send books home because sometimes they are not
returned. The only thing that I ask is
that when your child is done reading the books, they send them right back to
school. Then I will send out a new
selection of books.
