I have put a lot of new pictures on there! If you would ever like a copy of one of the pictures you see, send me an email and I can send that picture to you!
Valentine’s Day Celebration- We will be having a Valentine’s Day Celebration on Monday, February 14th at 1:45. Students will each have their own bag to collect Valentines. Students may bring Valentines from home to pass out to their peers. Please, don’t worry about addressing them to each student in the class. Simply make sure to have 24 and your child can write their name on the card so the kids know whom it is from. If you would like to bring in a special treat, send in a note to let me know. Also, if you would like to come in and volunteer during the celebration we would love to have you!
Box top Challenge: Continue bringing in box tops. We want to be the winning Kindergarten classroom!
100th Day of School- It is looking like the 100th Day of School will be on Tuesday, February 8th. If for some reason we have a snow day on Monday, then it will be pushed back to Wednesday. I am looking forward to seeing what your child is bringing in. If you need a gallon size ziplock bag, let me know and I will send one home.
If you have any questions about the homework that comes home, please write a note or send me an email. Try your best to get it turned in on Wednesday so I can get everything together for them to take their homework back home on Friday.
Scholastic Book Orders- I have sent home order forms if your family would like to order books for your child to read at home. Each order you put in gives bonus points to the classroom so I can buy things for the kids to use in the classroom. I encourage you to order online, as it is easier and gives us 5x the bonus points! I encourage you to take advantage on these great prices on books!
