February Notes

  Our first delayed start seemed to go well from this end.  Any Comments?

Information regarding the animal reports will be coming home tomorrow.  Please look for this and discuss it with your student.  Most of them are very ready and excited to get started on this project.  Note that we will be writing the reports in class so the note taking on the 'webs' will be most important. 

Also, February is African American History month.  The children will be reading about notable African Americans as well as stories by and about African Americans.  An oral report will be given on a book of the child's choice in late February.

We will be having a Valentine Party on Feb. 14th in the afternoon.  A Valentine list will go home tomorrow too.  We will be making our Valentine boxes in school.  If you have an empty kleenex box with a top opening, we could use a few more.

We also need more kleenex  for the room.  There have been a lot of runny noses this year and kleenex use is way up!
