I will be sending home a list and note regarding the party very soon. You can find inexpensive Valentine Cards at Wal-Mart, Target and K-Mart.

Book Order Our Book Order is due! I will leave it open for one more day in case anyone wants to order any more book. It will close this Wednesday, February 4th.

I’m Glad You Asked! Q: How can I help my child at home? A: The best way to help your child at home is to work on the reading and the math sections in the binder. Practice the sight word flashcards that I sent home inside their binder. Another fabulous way to help is to read every night and write the books down on the RAH sheet!
