Week of February 13th

The weeks continue to be very busy. Tuesday was Valentine's Day and everyone had a terrific time. There were some fun and creative Valentine's cards given out. It always amazes the creativity that goes into making these. I'd like to thank everyone for my cards and I'd also like to thank Cecilia Halliburton, Christie Allen, and Anna Palmer for contributing to the fun snacks and drinks.

The children enjoyed checking out the Book Fair this week. Hopefully everyone that wanted to go, got a chance to make it in for it. I want to thank the families who contributed a book to the classroom. That was very thoughtful and the children are enjoying the stories already.

The penguins are invading our classroom. We are very busy wrapping up our unit and painting life size Penguins. We will have a parade and visit the Kindergarten classrooms next Thursday. We are looking forward to having families visit us on Thursday as well. Invitations went home in the Friday folders today. We have also been practicing counting by 2s. If you get a chance, practice this with your child at home. It can be a little tricky as we get up closer to 100. Below are our Penguin pairs that we made and then put into a Growing pattern. Ask your child all about it.




Have a wonderful weekend,
Nancy and Ali
