NEA's Read Across America Day

Tuesday is the National Education Association's Read Across America Day. To celebrate, guest readers will be joining each classroom throughout the day to share beloved books. We will also be reading Dr. Seuss books throughout the week to celebrate. You can learn more about Read Across America Day on the NEA website at http://www.nea.org/grants/886.htm .

Snow snow snow!

I hope everyone is staying safe and warm during the snow storms. I can't believe that they keep coming! I look forward to returning back to the classroom and getting back to our schedule. Here's an update on some things we have missed:

Valentine's Day Activities
We will be holding our Valentine's Day activities on Tuesday, February 16 when we return. Each child was asked to bring Valentine's cards for each of their classmates. I will also be collecting the supplies to make our Valentine's treats on Tuesday as well.

Parent Teacher Math Conferences
Conferences will be rescheduled. Look out for information coming home about the new schedule next week.
