February Events

It is hard to believe that February is right around the corner. February means several things to us, including the 100th day of school, Valentine's Day, and mid-winter break. It also means the start of a new monthly theme - this time it will be Migrations. And, of course, a couple of special field trips. Here is an event calendar to keep us all on track:

Friday, February 3   Field trip to the Map Library at U of M. Tim will have some special maps that document human and animal migration for us to explore. Many thanks to Ella's mom, Amy, for setting this up.

Tuesday, February 14  Valentine's Day. We celebrate simply in our room. The children will have decorated their boxes beforehand as a class project. On the 14th, please bring in a valentine for each child in our class. I have already emailed all of the names. No food items please, but of course little gifts are fine. We will also have a special (fruit) snack.

Wednesday, February 15  100th Day of School. We will have some special stories and activities.
