Hey Parents!
Well it’s February and that means it’s Valentine’s Day, Groundhog Day, and President’s Day (just to name a few)! For the first week of the month, we are going to have a review week, and then we will pick back up and move along the following week.
We will be having a Valentine’s Day party on the 14th and I will have a signup sheet posted on the door outside our classroom for some goodies! Also, please bring a valentine for the class (there are 12 students total). Finally, we are going to be making our own Valentine’s mailboxes and for this I will need each child to bring an empty tissue box no later than the 7th! I will send home reminders for all of these details.
