It's 2015!  May the Lord grant you and your family many blessings in the upcoming year.  Happy New Year!
     The children will be excited to have Show and Tell this week.  It will be fun to see how many of them bring something special that they got for Christmas.  The beginning of the alphabet (1 - 9) may bring their items on Thursday.  The others should bring their treasures on Friday.
     Due to the prediction of very cold weather we may be spending a number of recesses inside this week.  If you have a puzzle or simple game which we could borrow for a few days it would be appreciated.  We will also spend time playing in the gym.
     Toward the middle of the week the Book Buddies will be sent home.  Please read the note inside regarding Accelerated Reader.
HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEK!
