Here are a few important things that are happening this week in our classroom and around the school. *In Literacy this week, we are working on the letter Ll.  Lots of lovely words begin with this letter, like lizard, lollipop, lavender, lemon-aide, ladybug, leaves, lake, and llama are just a few.  Show and Tell will be on Thursday this week because there is no school on Friday.     *In Math, we will continue to work on Measurement.  Check out the web link I posted called ‘How Tall?’.  The kids really enjoyed this when I showed it to them and again when they got a chance to play during free play.   *The Scholastic Book Fair begins on Monday, February 20th and runs until Wednesday, February 22nd.  We will be visiting the fair on Monday morning.   *We are going skating on Wednesday, February 22nd and will be leaving the school at 8:35.  If your child needs to borrow a helmet, please let me know ahead of time so I can get one that fits him/her.     *There is NO school on Friday, February 24th due to Curriculum Implementation Day.  Enjoy your long weekend.       * In class Scholastic Book Orders are due Thursday, February 23rd.
