Additions to the March News

            I apologize for leaving out the following information.

*The Scholastic Book order is due back March 13th

*School pictures will be next Tuesday, March 10th.  If you wish to purchase a class picture please send in $10 by Tuesday in the envelope that was sent home this week or in another envelope with your child’s name and mark it group picture.

*coupon books were sent home this week.  They are not free.  This is a fundraiser for our school.  If you do not want to sell any or purchase the one in the envelope please send it back with a note stating that you are not interested.  If you will be selling more you can pick them up at school on 3/26 and 4/16.  If you have any questions please let us know. 

*We have begun a Spanish language program in our classroom.  We watch a video 3 times a week.  Watch for more information to come!

A Note from Mrs. Mudd           There is a lot going on during the month of March!!  The most important thing is to sign your child up for KINDERGATEN!!  If your child will be 5 years of age by October 1, 2009 then they will be going on to kindergarten.  Please see the information below. 

                Book IT! Beginners will begin this month!  Your children will earn a coupon for a free personal pan pizza when they read books with their teacher at school as well as when they read at home and you write it down on their reading log.  See the attached letter about this program. 

                Lastly, we will be having our Family Story time on March 18th in the evening from 6 to 7.  I hope that you will be able to join us for this evening!

                We will have a student from the University of Kentucky visiting our class room in March.  She is majoring in Early Childhood Education.  They will be observing the teachers and children.   We are also having students in the classroom from Bryan Station High School.  These students are in a program where they get to have on site job experience.
