Wednesday, June 6th Beach Day and pizza party
Kids need to come dressed in clothes they can get wet. Boys- swim trunks or shorts with a t-shirt, girls- shorts and t-shirt that can get wet. Water/pool shoes would be great. Send a beach towel and a change of clothes in their bookbags. We will have pizza for lunch so you do not need to pack lunch. All volunteers need to be here before 8:30. It would be helpful to have people here by 8:00 to help set up stations.

Happy Mother's Day!

Thank you for coming to our Mother's Day authors tea. We had 100% attendance and the kids really enjoyed making you feel special.


The class did a great job at our orientation program yesterday. We had a "normal" schedule today and it was so nice :) Tomorrow afternoon we will participate in a pep rally for  grades 3-5 who are starting EOG's. We made good luck paw print notes for Mrs. Wallace's class and learned a cheer to give tomorrow for the third graders.


Our caterpillars in our butterfly habitat have really grown! One escaped their little container of food by eating through the paper and pushing up on the lid. We can't wait for them to turn into a chrysalis. They are supposed to be painted lady butterflies.

Reminder:
Please help your child complete their animal project report/picture that was sent home last week and send it in. Then choose one of the project ideas to work on and return by May 31st. Kindergarten will carry their projects through the school hallways to show the other grade levels on Friday, June 1st at 8:30. Then field day will start
