Thanks so much for your help! One additional item I’d like your help with is with shoe tying. It’s time for the kids to practice this skill so they can begin to tie their own shoes. I think I’m getting too old to bend down and tie so many shoes… That’s what I tell the kids anyway!
Quite a few of my first grade friends are coming in from recess with red hands and ears. I have a few sets extra gloves in my room to borrow, but please send a coat, hat and gloves to school for outside recess.
