Jan. 17-20.

Welcome back!!  What a surprise to get a four day weekend!  It was a bummer we had to miss our Book Bash Friday, but put it on your calendar for Friday, Jan. 27.

Please have your child finish the math packet sent home on Thursday if they haven't already.

We are working on writing our last names.  Most of the class can write it without help.  Ask you child to spell their last name and write it.  I will be sending home practice writing pages soon to practice writing it the Kindergarten way.

Father/Daughter dance--Tomorrow is the deadline for the RSVP to be filled out and $20 for the dance.  I've only received a few so wanted to remind any parents if their daughter/father wanted to attend.  The RSVP was a bright yellow sheet that was sent out earlier.

Please fill out the half sheet that went home today on where your child was born asap.
