Valentine’s Day is THIS week already!! We will celebrate it on Wednesday and Thursday. Have your child bring a Valentine for each classmate. It would be nice for them to sign each card, but don’t feel compelled to make them write their classmates’ names unless they are truly interested. We will be making fancy envelopes for them to each deliver/receive valentines in.
The Valentine Party will be pretty low-key. When you come to school at 9, help your child deliver his/her Valentines. Then, after snack and time outside, we will come inside (around 11:30 or so) and open our Valentines. If you parents would like to join us for this, that would be wonderful! We might also make a treat to share with you then – I will talk with my Helpers to coordinate efforts.
I will be out of the classroom on Friday, attending the Conference on Parent Education and presenting a lecture at UNT (Attachment and the Process of Separation and Individuation across the Lifespan). Dawn and Jennifer have graciously volunteered to take my place.
The last 2 weeks of February, we will be exploring “The Arts” – music, visual, movement, theatrical. If you have a special talent or interest in any of these or other Arts, please plan to share it with us!
As always, please call if you have any questions or concerns! Thanks for sharing your children with me, I enjoy them a lot!
