Week of 2/3-2/7

Thank You

Thank you for sending in all the childrens' 100 day projects, the field trip money and the valentines.  I am still looking for a few stamped envelopes addressed to your child for our secret valentine project.  Could you please send them in Monday, if possible?   I would like to mail the secret valentines out early next week.

Our classroom post office has opened and has been very busy.  Our postal workers are very efficient.  We will open our valentine factory next week also.  Any donations of alphabet stickers or valentine stickers would be appreciated.  It is one of the childrens' favorite centers.

We will be decorating love bug cookies on Valentine's Day. Is anyone available to help bake them on Thursday morning?  We will be using Pillsbury sugar cookie dough to simplify the process.  The children will also open their cards on Valentine's Day.  It will be a fun day for children only:)

I hope you enjoyed the book bags the children brought home on Tuesday.  These were well practiced books so they would have an opportunity to show off for you.  I tell the children we reread books to develop fluency and strengthen our reading skills.

Snow angel pictures are on Flikr.

Enjoy your weekend!!!

100 Day

 Look at the wonderful collections!

 We made 100 squares with rods.

 We made medallions and wore crowns.

 Look at these girls fill in the Promethean Board.



 We used unifix cubes to build another 100 square.


 It was a great day!

100 day

Tomorrow is 100 day if the weather cooperates.  The children were concerned that we might miss it due to snow, but I explained to them whatever day we come back will be day 100.
Please send valentines in, even if the children haven't finished them so they can start mailing them.  We will do a few each day.
Thank You!!!
