Dates to Remember:
Monday, February 11 – Math homework packets will go home. There will not be a spelling test this week due to the short week of school. We will do a practice spelling test with the “ap” word family.
On Monday, in your child’s folder you will receive a permission slip/order form for your child to attend the Barn Hill Preserve traveling zoo assembly on Tuesday, February 12. You must have the permission slip signed and returned by Tuesday morning of the event. If there is no permission slip your child will not be able to attend the event. If you would like your child to have their picture taken with an animal please fill out the purchase order, please send money/check in an envelope along with order form/permission slip. During the week, I sent an attachment copy of the permission slip on Class Dojo. If you were able to print and sign this document go ahead and send the permission slip/order form on Monday. Thank you.
