Morning Prayer:  The Morning Offering

Last week
This past week we continued to work on classroom routines, letter recognition, numbers, shapes and color recognition.  We are learning how to read our color words too.

Snack Sale:
Occasionally there will be juice or snacks for purchase (.25-$1).  These are offered somewhat randomly throughout the year.  To make things easier for parents, we are willing to keep a baggie of loose change for your child here in our classroom.  Just bring in some loose change and we will put it in a baggie with your child’s name on it.  Then, when there is a snack sale they can decide if they want to purchase anything.

Lunch with Mercy
We are selling raffle tickets for “Lunch with Mercy”.  Tickets are .25  each and are sold at lunchtime.  Proceeds will go to the SPCA.
