Week of Feb.9
Valentine’s
Day is right around the corner. Your teacher sent home a class list.
Please be sure to have a valentine for every child in the
classroom. Also, please be sure to have your child sign
each card so that each classmate will know whom to thank for the card.
Please
help your child decorate a box, a bag, or send in a purchased gift bag for your
child to put the valentines in.
You may have your child bring his/her valentines to school on Thursday, Feb. 12th or
Friday the 13th.
Your
child may attach or bring in a small candy treat also if you wish. Do not
send in peanuts or candy containing peanuts. You may also choose
to send in a pencil, bookmark, or another small item that is not edible.
Our Valentine’s Day party will be in our classroom from 2:00-2:45 on Friday,
Feb. 13th. You are welcome to join us for the fun!
