Week of February 27th

This week will be a review week so there will be no spelling test on Friday.  We are going to be doing a Dr. Seuss celebration all week.  Each first grade teacher will do a different Dr. Seuss activity with the students.  The students will rotate through a different first grade classroom each day.

We also have a special "dress up" week planned.  Here is the schedule:

Tuesday, February 28: Wear red, white & black like ...( The Cat in the Hat Comes Back!

Wednesday, March 1: Wear Crazy Socks.(Wacky Wednesday and The Foot Book)
