Classroom Happenings:
This month in Kindergarten we have a lot of fun things going on, including our Valentine’s Day Party, 100th Day Party, a field trip, and lots of learning. Please stay tuned all month for important notes and information. As always, please feel free to contact us at 324-8951 with any questions you may have!
Valentine’s Day:
On Tuesday, February 14th, we will have a Valentine’s Day celebration. Each child may bring in Valentine cards for their classmates. A list of students’ names is attached to this newsletter. It will be a great time!
100th Day:
We will be celebrating the 100th day of school on Tuesday, February 14th! Each child needs to bring in a collection of 100 items to share with the class, or create a project to show 100 items. They can be as creative as they want. Some examples are 100 pennies, 100 cotton balls, 100 beads, etc., or a picture using beans, marshmallows, etc... The important element is that they are counting out 100 items. Have fun! 
Book It!
Attached is this month’s book-it calendar. Please try to read as much as you can and don’t forget to color in the days that you read for 20 minutes. Happy reading!
Wish List:
We are in desperate need of glue sticks! Any donations would be greatly appreciated. Also, disinfecting wipes (Clorox, Lysol,) are always helpful!

Book It!
Attached is the February reading sheet for the Book It program. The Kindergarten goal is for all students to read 8 books with an adult this month. Please keep track of the books your Kindergartener reads at home. Return the signed “Reading Is Yummy” worksheet by Friday, March 2nd and your child will receive a coupon for a free personal pan pizza at Pizza Hut!
Valentine’s Day
On Tuesday, February 14th, we will have our classroom Valentine’s Day party. We will have some fun centers and the students will exchange valentines. If your child wants to participate in the exchange, he or she needs to bring one for everyone. You will find a class list at the end of the newsletter.
Weather Watch
The weather outside is getting colder! Please make sure your child has the proper outdoor attire including sweaters, coats, hats, boots and mittens. Also, please remember to LABEL all clothing! We will give you advanced notice when we will be going outside to play as a class so that you can send in snow pants on that day. In case of severe weather, stay tuned to channels 3 and 8, as well as the major radio stations for school closing information. This information should be posted by 6:30 am.
Character Counts
Last month’s character trait was Compassion. We watched the students carefully and chose 2 students who we felt best exhibited this trait. Congratulations to the January Character Counts winners - Abbey G. and Cara T.! This month’s character trait that we will be working on is cooperation. Please encourage your child to practice this trait at school.
