Week in Review This week we learned all about being fair and treating people equally. We learned about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his dream for people to be treated equally. We explored this idea by looking at M&Ms and discussing how they are different on the outside but when you bite into them they are the same.! We read a story called The Color of Us and wrote in our journal what we were the color of. Some of us said we were the color of toast, rice, cereal, sand and more. We learned continued to learn about addition and subtraction. We talked about how to be a good friend to others and what it feels like when someone is being a good friend to us.

Valentines Party and Cards
Our party is on February 12th. Parents are welcome, but not obligated to attend.Valentine cards are great way to practice name writing! Use this experience to practice writing first or first and last names. HOWEVER, PLEASE DO NOT ADDRESS VALENTINE CARDS TO A SPECIFIC STUDENT, AS CARDS WILL BE PASSED OUT DOWN A LINE IN ORDER TO TAKE LESS TIME AWAY FROM OUR FUN PARTY! Again, please have children only sign their own name. Also, it is easiest to pass out cards that are unisex. Valentine bags will be made at school so there is no need to send one in. THANK YOU for helping make this experience FUN and EDUCATIONAL! There are 21 students in your child’s class
