Announcements: This is the first week of March so I will be giving out calendars this week so watch for them in your child’s backpack. Tuition is due this week. Show and Tell will be March 5th or 6th. Have your child bring something that represents what they like to do with their family.

Home Challenge: Some of the backpacks are getting really full so I challenge you to go through the backpacks and empty out any art projects or old calendars. : We are talking about home and family this week. Does your child know what city they live in? Do they know what your house number is? If they know I will have them write their house number on their homes they create for arts and crafts. If they don’t that is fine you can talk to them about what your house number is and show them on your house where it is and then they can write it on their creation at home.
