Week of Feb. 21st

Boy did we have a busy week!  Thank you to all who volunteered and/or donated for our Valentine's Day exchange.  It was short and fun!

 Ms. Debbie Diller, author/consultant, was here to work with a group of teachers on Thursday.  She came to our classroom and modeled a small-group lesson.  We learned so much from her!

And, on Friday after the Spelling Test, we had a visit from a dental hygienist.  Then, in the afternoon, a Black History program.
