Welcome Back!
It sounds like all of the kids had a great, relaxing holiday filled with lots of fun experiences. It was so good to see all twenty smiling faces on Monday morning! We are back in the swing of things. Just a few reminders...please continue to listen to your child read and practice words at home. You will notice the text of the books your child is bringing home will gradually get more difficult in upcoming months. It is so important that the kids have multiple opportunities to read these books for fluency and comprehension. I want everyone to be prepared for 2nd grade!
Our Night Tree
We had a wonderful time decorating an area of our entrance as our "Night Tree". Thanks for sending in the supplies....the kids and animals appreciate it!
