Big Day Tomorrow!

Tomorrow is the big day! Today, we worked on sentence writing (the kids
copy my sentence) and sounds. We also practiced numbers to five.
Tomorrow, we will have a normal morning. Our party will start at 12:30.
Please give your child a quick reminder about their costumes; they are
to stay in their bags until it is time to change. Also, we are not to
share costume items because of the spread of lice. Thanks and have a
great evening!
