DUE WEDNESDAY To kick off our 100's day celebrations, we will enjoy a morning snack together. Please have your child count out 100 pieces of their favorite cereal, and send it to school, labeled with their name. I will supply the bowls, spoons, and milk....we will each have 100 pieces cereal for a fun morning snack! Class List for Valentine's Day: (click for the link) all students will have the opportunity to pass out Valentines, use this list if you'd like to label them. Or, you can leave the label off and they can drop one valentine in each bag. Either is great. We will make the bag in class, you don't need to create anything at home. There are a few items we are in need of for some upcoming projects and events. I created a SignUp Genius (click) for the items- please check it out. Some items have specific dates listed- if no date is specified, if all items could be sent it by February 15, that'd be great. Thank you in advance for your generosity- you make all these amazing learning opportunities possible. THANK YOU!
