YAY!!!! A weekend with beautiful weather. Now it feels like Spring! We cannot believe that there are only 44 days left until the end of the school year. Time just goes by way too quickly. We have learned so much, but still have so much more left to do. Kindergarten and First Graders work very hard to learn so many new things. Last week, we began making a poem using similes. A simile compares two things using as or like. For example; He/She was as strong as a bull. It was a little tricky at first, but they all understood and wrote great simile poems. Please send in a seasonal change of clothes for your child. Sometimes they spill, or get wet on the playground, so it’s important we have a change of clothing. I will send back what they have in their cubbies, once I receive new clothing. Thank you for your support.

Message: Lulu visited with Dougie’s family and had a wonderful time. He went to Dougie’s cousin Ava’s birthday party in CT. He had to go on the ferry. He loved it. Charlotte had Lulu this past weekend for some more fun and exciting adventure. Lulu went to her first soccer game. She was cold, but luckily she had her blanket with her. Then Lulu jumped on the trampoline with Charlotte and Ida. Lulu was so high in the sky. She loved it. This week Lulu goes home with Sophia on Friday.
