It can be a poster, a binder, Powerpoint/Google slides, or simply put all the letters in the brown envelope and turn it in. It can be returned in any format! Be creative and have fun!

February Scholastic Book Order: Flyers will come home this week. Orders are due online by 7PM next Wednesday, February 19th. Visit https://clubs.scholastic.com/ and use our class code FPMFW to register as a parent to order books.

CLASSROOM WISHLIST: Our classroom needs more baby wipes. Kindly donate a box of wipes to our classroom. Thank you so much!

This Friday is Valentine’s Day and the children have asked if they’re allowed to pass out valentines to their friends and the answer is YES! =) To make it easier to pass out in class, kindly label only the FROM side on each bag/treat. We have a total of 23 students (12 boys, 11 girls) in our class. Just a reminder that this is OPTIONAL.
