Last Day of School Plans

Our classroom flowers have bloomed.  We are making sure pollen gets exchanged so they complete the life cycle and form seeds.

Last Day of School
The last day of school is Tuesday, June 12th.  On that afternoon students will have a picnic lunch on the playing field.  We are also working on getting kites for all students to fly.  The picnic lunch will be a potluck but I also recommend that each student bring a small bagged lunch in case they don't like the choices available from the potluck--the cafeteria will be closed. 

To make this last day work I need some help from parents.  Here is a checklist of everything your student should bring on the last day of school:
- a towel or blanket that your student can sit on during the picnic.  You might write your surname on the tag.
- a light sack lunch.
- something for the potluck.

Mrs. Krantz, our room parent, should be contacting you shortly about requested items for the potluck.

Field Day
Field day is this Thursday, June 7th.  This is a change from the master calendar due to the rainy weather.  On that day students need wear athletic clothes that they can run, jump, and sit in the grass in.
