Monday's Tattler



Happy Monday! It's a great week to be alive and kicking. It's Valentine's week and we will be sharing a lot of love! It's an outdoors week as well. Although it was sloppy and still icy and snowy outside last week, the kids loved being outdoors.

This week we will share the story of St. Valentine an early Christian martyr from the the first century. We will talk about sharing and the affection we have for one another. We will make oodles of Valentines and on Friday, share them with an all school "post."

Your child needs 40 Valentines that are signed but not addressed. They can be fancy or plain, homemade or store bought. Your child should bring these to school in a ziplock with his name on them. They go into his folder until sharing time. This is a really fun day for kids.

At 3:00 Friday afternoon, we will have a Valentine's dance and party. Parents may come and dance, but all children must have an attending adult. We will dismiss at 4:00.

Please bring a treat to share. Treats should be a plate of cookies that will feed 4; a bag of chips; a simple before dinner treat or fresh fruit. Candy will be put aside for later.

Love it up this week - it's your week!
