Once again Valentine’s Day is upon us. We will celebrate this event on Tuesday, February 14, after 2:30 pm. We will not be having a class party but we will be doing a science “experiment” that will demonstrate the difference between mixtures and solutions. Students will also be making a Valentine’s Day gift for parents as well as writing letters to our soldier friends in Afghanistan. We will also be exchanging our own cards during this time period. Although parent volunteers are not needed, I do appreciate the many offers that I have had to assist.
On the back of this letter you will find the names of all the students in our class. We talked about this in class and agreed that if the children were going to bring cards to school to share, that they must bring one for everyone in the class. If your child has friends in another third grade class and wants to bring a card for that person(s), they may do so but we ask that they do this discreetly so as to avoid hurt feelings. If your child wants to make a small box at home to have on his/her desk, that is fine. Alternatively, I will provide bags for students to collect their cards and treats.
Please remember that Tuckahoe is currently sponsoring a drive to support A-SPAN. Collection Bins will be located at the school entrance Monday, February 13th through Friday, February 24th. We are collecting only new, adult men’s and women’s socks and new twin flat and fitted sheets.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me in the classroom or via email. As always, thanks for your hard work and support!
Ms. Coffman
