February 23-26

The children love "Mystery Reader"! If you want to come, email or text me. 

It can be any day of the week if Thursday doesn't work for you. Your child will be so excited. 

*Also, if you were wondering, we decided not to have narration this week since we only had 2 days of school. The book, however, is one of my favorites! Ask your child about it - Mr. Lincoln's Whiskers and Abraham Lincoln. They love learning history!
