  Valentine's Day Party Information

Our Valentine's Day party will be on February 13th at 1:30. This is a low key party, but a favorite with the kids. We'll have a sweet treat and exchange cards.  Students may bring in a homemade box to collect their cards in. This can be a fun and creative project at home.  You can use an empty shoe box, cereal box, oatmeal container, etc. for your child’s box. I will have plain bags if your child does not participate.  Please bring completed boxes  to school on Friday, February 13^th.

I  sent a emailed a class list to everyone. Please have your child write their name and classmates' names on the cards.  Please send in completed cards with your child's box on the 13th. 

Can your child tie their shoes? If not, it's important to start/continue practicing this skill until they master it. This will help them gain independence. Check out these websites for shoe tying tips.
