Week At A Glance

February 9-13, 2026

     We are still playing post office in our playhouse for the next few weeks. Students will write letters to each other and then mail them at the post office. Post office workers will add a stamp and then put them in the right mail box. It's such a fun way to practice writing, letter and name recognition, and it make writing REAL, which I love. If you would like to send your child a letter, put it in an envelope and send it in their folder. I will make sure the post office workers get it to the right mail box.

     This week is kindness week at our school! We always work on being kind, but this week we are working extra hard! This class has been struggling with kindness the last little bit, so this will be good for all of us! They will bring a button home with them today to add to their jacket or backpack to remind them to be kind.

Valentine's Day this week too! Our class will be having a party on Friday, Feb 13 at 1:30. We will be making a Valentine's Day bag at school to bring Valentines home in, so you don't need to worry about making a box. I sent home a class list for Valentines, and it is on the website. Please have your child fill out the To and From part of each Valentine. I know it is a lot of work, but it is such good practice, and helps them to have ownership of the cards they are giving. It takes us awhile to pass them out too, but the time spent is worth it! 

No school next Monday for President's Day. Have a safe long weekend.

Remember to keep reading! Thank you for reading to, and with your child! Our reading goal is to read to and with your student for 20 minutes a day. Thanks for reading the book in your child's folder each night. Read it and put it back and they will get to choose another one when they bring the first one back. Write the minutes down on the reading calendar and return them at the end of the month for a prize.

Part of our core includes learning their address and phone number. This is difficult to teach at school. Please help your child practice their address and phone number. When you feel like they know it, send me a note in their folder or an email. They will get a prize for knowing their phone number, and when they know their address I will send a letter to them in the mail.

Please label lunch boxes, backpacks, jackets and other items with at least the student's last name. This will help us to make sure that we get everything back to the proper place. 

If you have any questions you can send a note in your child’s folder, or call me at school.  Email is a great way to reach me too.  My email address is angela.eckhardt@nebo.edu THANK YOU!!
