Dear Families,
We had a great Cornerstone lesson on Tuesday about encouraging our friends. We played a fun game where we passed a ball quickly to each other (over/under), and made sure we praised each one of our classmates.
We glazed our last clay project and it will be ready to share with our families in a few weeks. They are adorable!
We made a visit to the Makerspace and worked on insect diagrams using various supplies. We uploaded our work to seesaw.
On Monday we will start to work on our own creative story in class. I will send more information home in the following week if you’re interested in purchasing a copy of the hardbound class book.
Hoping we are moving towards the end of the flu season. Just a reminder that if your child has been ill, he or she needs to stay home until they are fever free (or vomit-free) for at least 24 hours (without medicine).
We would love some glue stick donations. :)
Have a wonderful weekend!
