Note from the Teacher

        Our preperations for the Wax Museum are well underway.  Guidelines were shared and sent home with your child. We discussed the project details in great length.  Please refer to those guidelines often as you continue to assist your child.  Props and models are due on Monday, February 18. The Take a Trip Wax Museum event will be held on Thursday the 21 from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m  in the library extention.  Any students who would like to help set up for the Wax Museum on that Wednesday afternoon prior may stay until 3:45 to assist only if given written permission by parents.  
      Just a reminder, the class chose to exchange valentines on Thursday  the 14^th.   Please bring a valentine to share with each person in our class.  (If your valentine includes candy, please no peanuts.)  Thank you for your support!
