I’m not gonna lie, I’ve been working on the powerpoint presentation and getting everything ready for all you wonderful parents tomorrow night, that I don’t have it in me to write an update this week! We did so much, and have started brainstorming ideas for making a magnificent thing for our classroom! With that being said, we need supplies. If you have any cardboard, egg cartons, empty milk jugs, toilet paper rolls, etc… anything that could be used to create something, we will gladly take it off your hands! We will start creating our magnificent things next week! Feel free to send anything with your child to school, or bring anything you have at back to school night.
