Week of April 4 - 8, 2022


Welcome back!  Hopefully everyone had an enjoyable spring break!  The students were all so glad to see each other when they came back to school on Tuesday.  They all enjoy each others' company so much!

Before we left for spring break, the Lower School finished up with our dinosaur theme.  The classes really enjoyed all of the different dinosaur learning and projects we completed over the course of the theme.  Thank you for all of the different families who shared their dinosaurs with us.  They really helped to bring our hallway to life!

One of First Grade's last dinosaur activities was to make fossils.  Each child was given a ball of salt dough, which they rolled into a thin, flat circle.  After their circles were ready, each child chose a dinosaur to make impressions of in the dough.  The class had lots of fun choosing different dinosaurs and  putting their dinosaurs in different positions in the clay.  When they were finished, the class put their dough on the shelves to dry.  After we returned from spring break, the students discovered the dough had hardened and their fossils were ready to take home!




















Reminders!!!

* Next week,  P.E. is on Monday (day 5).
*There is no school on Friday, April 15th and Monday, April 18th for the Easter holiday.
