Cafeteria Numbers

To begin to prepare students for 1st Grade, students will begin to enter their “Lunch Numbers” into a Keypad. Mrs. Candy has created a pretend keypad for students to practice their specific number and be able to enter it into the keypad in the lunch line in the upcoming weeks. Please help your child learn their “Lunch Number” at home. Thank you!
