April!

I hope all of my students had a restful Spring Break!  We are smooth sailing for the last two months of school!

April is an exciting month!  The children will be studying different eggs, plants and how they grow, seeds, flowers, Asia, the flags of Asia, the artist Georgia O'Keeffe.


Reminder:

Please send in a change of warm weather clothing for your child.  I will return the clothing I have here for your child when you send in the replacement.

Early Release:

4/4 & 4/5 are half-days for the full-day children.

No Early Release:

4/17 & 4/24 are not half days for the full-day children due to AIMS testing.  (Our students are too young to participate in the test)  If you want to pick up early on those days, you may.

Water Day:
This is importannt!  Water Day is 5/17 for our students.  It is a day of great fun, sweet treats and water slides here on campus.  When I say, "water slides", I mean 2 story tall water slides.  Beacuse of this, if you are the parent of a first year child, it is mandatory that you accompany them to water day.  For the rest of the students it is optional that a parent be there, but it will your last chance(that's right, last chance) for volunteer hours.  The even usually begins by 9:00.

Classroom Wishes:

Cotton Balls
Food coloring
Gallon size Ziploc bags
