A Note from Mrs. Danley...

Dear Parents,

Students shopped at our Class Store for the first time last week.
They will continue to earn money each day in class. Thank you again, parents, for the very generous donation of items for our store. We will have
plenty to last for several weeks! We will continue using our counting skills
each day and keeping up with the amount in our banking books.
We have an Auburn University Lab student, Miss Jordan Drummond,
who will be joining our class starting last week. She is an Early Childhood
major that will be spending Tuesdays and Thursdays observing and helping in our classroom. We welcome Miss Drummond to AEEC!
Many Thanks, Mrs. Danley :)
WISH LIST: pop tabs, quart and gallon size ziplock bags, and
large bottle of sanitizer
