SWIMMING!!!

We start swimming tomorrow, Tuesday! I've asked that 1-piece bathing suits not be worn to school. This will make it difficult for students to go to the bathroom in the morning. We are leaving at 10:15 to go to swimming and we will get back right at lunch time.

You are more than welcome to come watch the lessons, but we ask that no parents come into the change room with us. Thank you for your understanding.

IF (or when) your child forgets their suit or towel, the pool has some extras we are allowed to borrow. They may not fit and they have definitely been worn by others (they are washed), so please try not to forget.

New Spelling Words
A- five, time, like, dime, nine, my, by, like, cone---practicing that bossy 'e' again

Reminder to return Library books! We will have Library time tomorrow, Tuesday!

***A note about Valentine's Day***
In Room 4, we will celebrate Valentine's Day on Wednesday, February 14th in the afternoon. We will make simple mailboxes at school. It is not necessary to send Valentine's to school, but I do ask, if you send a Valentine card to 1 student you send them to all students in Room 4. We have 22 Students and 2 teaches (shh Ms. Yu will surprise the students with a visit, she returns on the 20th officially) I am unable to give you a class list, (check Raz Kids, but note, not all kids on Raz are in our class.)
