Valentines

Dear Families,

I sent a Valentine (or is it valentine?) list home today. It has a class list, along with favorite things. I asked the students to write personalized valentines to each classmate, and we did the math to approximate how many they should complete each day. They each brought ten pages home to use for cards, and more will come later.

 

I want them to consider these as “published” when done, meaning they have been checked for spelling, capitals, punctuation, etc. I’m hoping there will be someone at home to help with this, but if not they can bring them to school for help, too.

 

We’ll plan to be all done and exchange on Valentine’s Day, Feb. 14, which is a Tuesday. I do not generally do much in the way of a “party”, but I do want to take some time to acknowledge and celebrate the writing and the friendships. If you’d like to be here for that, you’re welcome, and I’ll send a time when we get closer, but it will be in the morning. If you’d like to send in a treat for the occasion, I’m sure they would love it.

 

Here is the list again, if you need it. I’ll also post it at room302.blogspot.com.

Let me know if you have questions.

 

Thanks.

Jeff
