Please be sure to check your child's Monday envelope. One of the papers sent home was a green form for requesting your conference date and time. Please return it by next Tuesday. I finally taught the dental health lesson that I had planned for February, which is actually dental health month! Each student brought home a toothbrush and a small sample of toothpaste.

I was blown away this morning by your little smarties. I printed a sentence that was intended to be too difficult for them to read so that I could teach some strategies. The sentence was, "The magician waved his magic wand and made a rabbit appear." They read it without help and without having to pause and think!!!! Oh my goodness! I did tell them about Lips the Fish and Eagle Eyes, just so they'd know.
