Weekly Update for 02/10/20

Valentine’s Day

We will be celebrating Valentine’s Day on Friday, February 14.  If your child would like to share valentine cards with the class, please make sure to include one for each child in our class.  A list of students’ names is on your child’s behavior check-in located in his/her reading folder. We will also be making a bag to put our Valentines in at school.

Kindness Grams

Kindness Grams will be on sale February 11^th-13^th.  They are $0.50 each.  This are a way to spread positivity and good citizenship at CAES.  A form is attached to this memo to be completed and brought in with money for Kindness Grams.  They will be delivered on Friday, February 14^th. 

To Infinity & Beyond

Please mark Wednesday, March 11^th (6:00PM - 6:30PM) down on your calendar as Mrs. Booth and our class’ “To Infinity & Beyond” Expo.  This will be the night that our two classes share all that we have learned about Space in conjunction with Mrs. Vukmanic’s SOAR class.  It is my hope to have all students attend this special event. More information will be coming home soon.
