Spring break is just around the corner! One of our activities, which will tie in nicely with our social studies unit on cultural traditions, will be to dye Easter eggs.  We will be learning about how the Ukrainian people traditionally dye their eggs and then each child will have the chance to dye or decorate some of their own eggs.  Each child will need 4 hardboiled eggs on the morning of Thursday, March 28th.  Transporting the eggs back and forth from school could be a problem.  If possible, wrap the eggs in paper towels and place them in a covered container.  Perhaps have your child carry their eggs instead of placing them in their backpack.  Thanks!

 

Our last day of school before Easter Break is March 28th - which is also the date of our Easter Sock Hop (1:15 – 3:00). Parents are welcome to come out and join us for an afternoon of fun! We can always use help keeping our dancers together! J

 

This month our students will also need help with a special art project.  We are making Easter Batiks and the children will be using hot wax to block out their designs.  Parents are needed to ensure student safety, monitoring the electric pans and holding the hot wax.  We are currently arranging a time for this project and will send a note home ASAP. We will need approximately 4 parents to help for this project. We are hoping for the morning of March 13.

 

Spelling words this week:

old - cold- told - bold - sold - gold - scold - hold - fold - roll

 

Sight words this week:

wash - outside- nice - gave - them

 

Reminders -

No School this Friday, March 8th!

 

Please remember to send your child to school with BOTH indoor and outdoor shoes. There have beenmany students walking around in bare feet or socks which is unsafe for many reasons. Thanks for your help with this!
