Our Valentine’s party is approaching and I wanted to take this opportunity to comment on the occasion. Valentine’s Day is a wonderful holiday and everyone loves to get a special card from a friend. Unfortunately, sometimes there are children that get left out. Please take the time to look at your child’s cards to make certain that everyone in our room will be receiving something.
I would also encourage you to allow your first grader to prepare their own cards. (What a wonderful opportunity to use new skills in purposeful writing!) Do a little bit each day and they will be completed in no time at all.
