We had a very special presentation on Thursday by one of our very own classmates! Ethan worked super hard with Mrs. Coffey to learn all about the solar system. After researching, he made an incredible presentation using thinglink to share his information with our class. He did a fantastic job! It can be very nerve racking getting in front of the class and sharing! GREAT JOB, ETHAN!!! You can check out his thinklink here!
FIELD TRIP THURSDAY
Just a few reminders and helpful tips about our trip…
All students should wear their Friday shirt on the field trip.We will leave the school at 9:30. Our tour of Fantastic
Caverns will begin at 10:00 and last 90 minutes. This will put us at Ritter Springs about 11:45 or shortly after. Right now the weather is looking cool but dry, however they are calling for rain on Wednesday—so we will keep an eye on the forecast. Obviously, the rain will not change our plans for the cave, but if it does rain on Thursday we will return to our classroom for lunch instead of going to the park. I recommend sending at least a warm hoodie or coat with each child. It has been very cool at the park for us in the past and the cave is 60 degrees.
Lunch Tip: If your child is bringing a home lunch I highly recommend packing it in a disposable bag -with only disposable items inside. This will allow them to eat, throw away their trash, and play without keeping track of a lunchbox. Please let me know if you have any questions!
PICTURE DAY MAKE UP
Our spring pictures have been rescheduled for Thursday, April 9th.
GENIUS HOUR IS HERE!!!
We have been talking about it a lot and the kids are getting excited—it is finally here! We will officially launch Genius Hour next Tuesday. All students will be in their regular classroom Tuesday and Thursday, but beginning Tuesday, April 1st we will be working in small groups with a variety of helpers. This is going to be great and I promise to write about our experience on my blog in case you want to “tag along” for the fun!
