HAPPY DR. SEUSS WEEK!! This week, we are celebrating Read Across America Week and Dr. Seuss' birthday! It's going to be a fun-filled week with a silly something to wear each day! 

Monday: 

Silly Sock Day {come to school in your silliest socks!}

Tuesday:

Stripes and/or Polka-dots Day 

Wednesday: 

Wacky Hat Wednesday {I can't wait to see all of those wacky hats!}

Thursday: 

Rhyme Time Day {dress in rhyme - some examples are: a green queen, a fish with a dish, a cook with a book, etc. Have fun!}

Friday:

Relax and Read Day {come to school in your PJ's!}

As part of our Read Across America celebration, we are welcoming guest readers into our classroom Wednesday through Friday at 11:25!  If you would like to read your favorite Dr. Seuss book please drop by the classroom door to sign up. 

***If you are out & about and happen to think of us, our classroom would love: $5.00 headphones (2) from Big Lots or someplace similar & hand sanitizer.

**** 2nd Trimester Parent/Teacher Conferences. Conferences will not be required for kiddos that are on target to meet all of the TK standards in preparation for Kindergarten. I have requested parent conferences for those kiddos that have opportunities for growth.  If you have not received a notice from me regarding parent conferences your kiddo is on target. Like 1st trimester, you will  be receiving report cards.
