Valentine's Day:
Please send in a clean milk jug by tomorrow. We will begin decorating them during art. Please let me know if you are not able to send one in. 

We will be celebrating Valentine's on Thursday the 14th this week. Your student is welcome to bring in a valentine for each child in class. We will be passing those out and opening them up and having a small snack to go with it. It is a pretty low-key party. You are welcome to join us if you want to!

Next Friday the 22nd is the 100th Day of School. We will be celebrating with all sorts of fun activities. Students are invited to dress up like they are 100 years old if they would like to. I will send out more details on next week's blog.
