Thank You
It was great to see so many of you on Thursday
afternoon for report card pick-up. As we begin
the 3rd trimester, there are many more
special activities planned to encourage
reading, writing and math skills.

We created our own McElligots

Pool after reading the story in
class. We wrote our own rhymes
and stories after reading Green
Eggs and Ham and Horton
Hatches the Egg. We enjoyed
reading a few more Seuss stories.
We will read The Lorax
next week and make
our own truffela trees.
