Happy Hearts Month

We are now in our third quarter of the school year. I am pleased with the
progress the children have shown so far. They have worked hard and continue to be
eager about their learning and are developing at their own developmental level. The
children should continue to read daily as well as practice math skills. Keeping a
writing journal at home to practice grammar skills will help reinforce the
conventions of writing. Please continue to encourage your child to pay good
attention, respect others, and do their best. If you did not get a Conference
Request from me and would like to have one please let me know.
Themes for February: Dental Health, Presidents Day, Reading Biographies, and
continuing our study on Matter
