Mrs. Stanhope’s Class A Note from Mrs. Stanhope Important Dates Dear families, I hope you had a great weekend! I enjoyed the sunshine! **I have 4 January Book It Logs with no names. If your child completed one and you do not receive a coupon this week, please let me know We will make Valentine’s Day bags this week for our Valentine cards. If your child would like to send in Valentine’s Day cards for their classmates, your child can either write the names or put to: “friend” or leave blank (and only write their name in the “from” section) Some children will find writing the names fun and others might find it overwhelming for 18 – 22 cards. Choose whatever method makes it FUN for your child. A list of student names is attached at the end of the newsletter.
