Dear Families,
What a busy week we had!
We had 4 Winds on Wednesday. Once again, thank you parent volunteers for making these terrific scientific explorations possible. On Wednesday, we learned about bird migration. We learned about where birds fly in the winter and why. The students also had the opportunity to use maps and measure how far some birds fly in the winter. It was amazing to learn that some birds fly over 3000 miles in order to get to warmer climates.
We also visited WCS for the annual Book Fair. The students had an opportunity to buy books, browse the store and even write "Wish Lists" for future purchases. Thank you parents for helping out.
My long-term sub, Katie Herbert, also joined us this week. She spent Thursday with the students and we had a great day together. I hope you all read her letter to you. It is posted below. Katie will return to our classroom on Tuesday, December 11th. As indicated earlier, we are hosting a "Meet & Greet", between 7:45-8:30am on Tuesday. Please come by and chat with Katie and enjoy some delicious breakfast foods. If possible, we would like parents to bring in some bagels, muffins, cream cheese, orange juice and fruit to share. Please let me know if this is possible for you and your family. We really appreciate your generosity and look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday. Thank you!
Regards,
Maria
