Hi Moms and Dads, We have had a fabulous week. A highlight this week was McClain Brown joining our class.   The children have welcomed McClain with open arms.   Continue to read with your child each night.  The children's reading skills are really improving.  We continue to work on our listening skills and following directions.  The children work so well together.  They have learned to assist each other when one is in need of help.  They are putting the fruits of the spirit and the golden rule into action.  What a blessing!
