Valentine's Day

Greetings Pre-K Families,

This week in Pre-K our theme is Valentine's Day.  Our letter of the week is "Vv."  Please take some time to review this letter and its sound with your child.  I appreciate all you do at home with your child.  

Some of the fun things we will be doing this week include: making a love bug, sorting candy hearts, making heart hand prints (with paint), playing a Valentine's Day memory/match game, and graphing Valentine's Day candy.  Be sure to look for a special Valentine's Day gift in your child's folder.  This will come home Wednesday and Thursday.  :)

We will be having our Valentine's Day celebration on Wednesday, February 13th and Thursday, February 14th.  Your child may choose to bring valentines in for his/her friends but it is not a requirement.  Please remember that we have a severe peanut allergy in our classroom, therefore any food items must be purchased and in the original packaging.  Valentines have already started to come in!  If you have not sent them yet, and plan to, please have them to school by Wednesday or Thursday.  

REMINDERS AND UPDATES: 

**Our theme for next week will be "Nursery Rhymes."

**The district's attendance policy requires a written excuse for all absences.  If your child is absent, please remember to send a note with him/her stating the reason for the absence in order for it to be excused.   A phone call does not meet this policy's requirement. 

**Please review your child's report card and return the envelope to school in your child's folder.  The report card is yours to keep.  As always, if you have any questions, please contact me.

**There will be NO SCHOOL for all grades on Friday, Feb. 15th.

**There will be an EARLY RELEASE for all grades on Tuesday, Feb. 19th.  Students will be released at 1:52 P.M.

**This month's Families Being Involved workshop will take place on Friday, Feb. 22nd.  More information was sent home Monday and Tuesday in your child's folder.

**The second Parent/Teacher Conferences will be held on Thursday, Feb. 28th in the evening.  This conference is only for those requested by the parent or the teacher.  Please watch for slips to be coming home Wednesday and Thursday in your child's folder.
