Lost Teeth - Alexa and Cayden have each lost a tooth in January. It does sound like there are lots of wiggly teeth, so the tooth fairy may be busy in February.
Congratulations Braelyn – our first to read 10 books
Reminder: Wednesday, February 1, 2017 – our day on the sledding hills – weather permitting!
Thursday, February 2, 2017 – Pasta money due –
It is truly amazing how quickly January flew by. We finished the chapter book, Dinosaurs Before Dark. I hope your child had a chance to tell you all about the story. We have begun book two in this series, The Night at Dawn. The children are very engaged during the story. I am sure that some of the children will soon be reading these books on their own.
Thank you for supporting our read-a-thon. The children are very excited to post the number of books read on our classroom graph and to tally the class total daily. The children read 50 books over the week. Please keep up the reading!
This week we will be working on:
