We have a lot to cover during the next 2 weeks of school, besides our regular curriculum. We will celebrate Valentines Day, 100th Day of School, Presidents Day, Black History month, and we have a week off for Winter Recess beginning 2/20. February is such an exciting month of celebrations even though it is a short month! More information will be given about the 100th Day of school which will be celebrated next Wednesday, 2/15.

Please encourage your child to complete his/her homework in their neatest writing, especially their spelling words. We are halfway through our ELA curriculum after this week, and will begin writing sentences for some of our spelling words next week.

Have a great week!
