So, the groundhog has spoken, and spring is on its way - have faith all ye of little. In the meantime, we are trying to enjoy winter by going out as much as possible to play in the snow. Please send in boots and ski pants so your child is not restricted to the blacktop. Staying in is usually not an option if outdoor recess is declared.
The erratic schedule we have had over the past month has not helped the children's ability to focus on their work. This week I am beginning an incentive program to reward hard work and listening skills. The children will have a chance to earn points towards a prize to be awarded at the end of the day on Friday. Total number of points possible ( unless we have snow days) will be 10. I haven't yet decided on total number of points needed to earn a prize, but it will be close to that magic ten mark. Ask your child on Friday how many points he/she earned.
Valentine reminder: cards exchanged next Monday, the 14th. Names went out last week. If you did not see them, let me know. Happy almost spring!
