Time is flying by…..Yikes! The children have been busy learning so much math…and they are stretching their brains.  Our reading unit "A Long Journey to Freedom" made us aware of Ruby
Bridges and the sadness of segregation.  We finished Charlotte's Web.  And we learned that size does not matter.  When we apply ourselves we can achieve anything.  In Religion we have opened our hearts to forgiveness.  Even though we hit a few bumps in the road, the children and I discussed the importance of being kind and understanding to each other.  We are looking forward to celebrating Annabelle's birthday - Sunday, March 1st.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY.

February 17th

Hope everyone is safe and sound with this winter weather.
I am looking forward to returning to school tomorrow.  We will return on Ash Wednesday, and we will attend mass.  All the students will be in their winter uniforms for the mass.  Our class does not have gym tomorrow so we will be good to go.
Be safe driving!

With Valentine Day quickly approaching the children would like to share cards with their classmates. Please do not run out to purchase these as my angels can create them.  They will be creating a valentine bag to hold all of the cards.  We will be giving the cards out on Friday, Feb. 13th.  Sorry for the short notice!

All the children arrived safe and sound to school!!

Thank you all for the kind and comforting words.  Your thoughts mean a lot to me.
I was so happy to be back with my angels.
