Dental Health Month

As you may know, February is Dental Health Month. In connection with this, we enjoyed a
special visit today from Dr. Micheal Williams, Nicholass dad. I would like to thank Dr.
Williams for sharing a fun and informative presentation with us about our teeth, mouth, and
facial structure. He taught us firsthand how we are fearfully and wonderfully made by God.

Childrens Book Week

We will be celebrating Childrens

Book Week next week with many
special activities. As the grand
finale of this week, each student
is being asked to come dressed as
his or her favorite book character
on Friday. I am looking forward
to seeing the book characters that
we will have in our class that
day!
