Three day weekend!

Art to Remember Forms
Art to Remember forms are in folders today.  Art to Remember is a special project from our art teacher.  The boys and girls drew pictures, and if you want, you can order through this company to have that artwork put on mugs, bags, and more.  Here is more info from Mrs. Garrett:
The order forms are personalized for each student with a photo of their artwork on the form for parents to see.  They are due February 27 (it says that on the form) and parents can order online or send the form back in. If a student loses their form at some point, send them to me and I will give them another one.

NO SCHOOL MONDAY!
Remember, we don't have school on Monday due to President's Day.  Enjoy the three day weekend!

Kelso's Choices
This afternoon, Ms. Brown came in and did our monthly guidance lesson.  We reviewed Kelso's wheel of choices (how to solve small problems), read a story, and helped Lily the frog solve her problems!  The boys and girls were excellent listeners and helpers today!



Homework
I noticed some issues with the handwriting homework (the back page of the homework sheet) this week.  We have been working really hard at school on capital letters at the beginning of sentences, finger spaces between words, and appropriate ending marks at the end of the sentence.  Lots of kids were forgetting this on the homework!  Please reinforce this skill and remind your child to include these parts of the sentence when writing at home.  Thanks!

Tuesday
I will be out of the classroom from arrival-lunch on Tuesday at a meeting.  I will pick the class up from lunch and be with them the rest of the day.  Some were a little nervous when I told them this today.  Please remind them of this Tuesday morning.  We have an excellent sub so they will be in good hands.  Also, please remind them about "all star good behavior" for a sub.  Thanks!

Have a beautiful, sunny, three day weekend!
