I'm looking forward to a "normal" five day week! Feels like we haven't been to school on a Monday in ages! Friday was the halfway point in the school year and I'm so sad it's halfway done! I hope time slows down just a little bit for the rest of the year so I can enjoy every minute with this kids. <3 One quick note about Valentine's Day: The letter I sent home yesterday said not to send any candy to school. I promised the kids I would tell you that if candy is attached to the Valentine, that's fine. I just didn't want any random candy coming in. That being said, Valentines with things
other than candy would be best. Nobody will be allowed to eat any candy at school. Thank you for your understanding.

We'll also be finishing the lower case cursive alphabet this week, so please encourage your kiddos to write in cursive whenever possible. They are expected to use cursive in class now, except for capital letters, so any extra practice is super helpful. Please reach out with any questions or concerns. Have a great Super Bowl weekend!
