BABY PICTURES:
I still need more baby pictures!!!
In a few weeks we
will be doing a paper on past, present, future.
I will need a baby (preferable infant age) picture of your child. You can email it to me or send it in—if you send
it in I will copy and get it back to you as soon as I can. The children will be gluing this copy of
their picture to their paper and writing what they could do at that age. I have current pictures they will glue under
present and they will write about what they can do now! Then they will draw what they will look like
and will write about what they will do in the future. It’s a fun project!
Keep saving those caps!
We’re counting as they come in!!
