This was an awesome week!! We had Biscuits and Books on Tuesday. I was able to catch a few of you. Thank you for coming in spending time with us with your busy schedules. The kids enjoyed it!! We, also, had fun passing out Valentines and I absolutely loved all of my gifts. (I think the kids actually think their teacher is Wonder Woman!!)

You can click on the link below so that you can sign up for the "Edible Rocks" items we will need once we begin the rocks and minerals unit.
Just a heads up, all science and social studies notes are posted in Google Classroom as we take them.
Also, for Valentine's Day, we have 20 students in class. To make easier, I'm asking that we only fill out the FROM section and not the TO section. It makes it easier and quicker when giving out the Valentines.
