Getting Ready for Valentine's Day!

Hello there! Sorry for the long delay in posting! Needless to say, I got 2 new kiddos and another on the way!! I am trying to catch up on everything for my new guys, like making schedules, work bins, IEP bins, and of course IEP's. SOOO much to do when a new student arrives! Not to mention that I am currently down an assistant and waiting for a new one to arrive. But enough with the complaining because February and March are a time for celebrations! Groundhog Day, Valentine's Day, President's day, 100th day of school, Dr. Seuss's Birthday and St. Patrick's Day!

So we are going to begin diving right into those fun crafts and holiday themed activities mixed in with our structured academic day! Here is my bulletin board for February and a fun craft we did so far!
