“Peak” Your Interest!

Happy spring break! Enjoy time with your family!

I will be in Louisville all week at a training. While I am gone, the kids will continue to celebrate Dr. Seuss. I know the kids will have a wonderful time learning about all of the great characters that Dr. Seuss brought to life through his books!

This week we will spend the first part of the week reviewing our basic skills and near the end of the week we will have a big celebration! March 2nd is the birthday of the beloved Dr. Seuss! We always have such fun learning about the books and working with all the interesting characters!

We will be working with Ms. Slade's class tomorrow on a literacy cooking project!  All of the kids should have received a slip of paper asking for a specific ingredient.  If you haven't already, please be sure to get your ingredient in tomorrow morning!  This should be a very fun learning experience! 

Don't forget Fall Festival is this Saturday, October 23rd from 5-8.  The meal is a choice of chili or hot dog.  We would love to see all of you there! 

Also, we will be going to see the play, "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" at the Lexington Children's Theatre tomorrow, October 21st.  We will be eating a the Huddle House in Paris before going to the 11:45 show. 

We have a field trip coming up on October 7th to Evan's Orchard. 

Fall Break begins October 11th.

Fall festival is October 23rd.  We are doing a pet basket, so feel free to send in your dog and cat items anytime!

A big thank you to all of those that helped make our yard sale a big success!  With the money we made, we will be able to take some really great trips within and around the community!  We have a pumpkin patch trip coming up in October, as well as a trip to see a play. 

On a side note, our basket for fall festival is a pet basket (dog and cat) if you want to go ahead and begin collecting pet things to put inside.  October 23rd is the date for fall festival!

Our annual yard sale is next week!   Dates and times for the yard sale are as follows:

Tuesday  10am-3pm

Wednesday 9am-3pm

Friday 9am-4pm+

FYI:  The proceeds support many of our community-based instruction outings.  These trips allow us to practice all of the math, reading and social skills that we learn in the classroom.  We have also purchased books at the book fair and taken the kids shopping at Salvation Army for Christmas, where they were able to shop for their families and get a few necessary items for themselves.   These are truly experiences we could not create within the building.

Welcome back!!  Hope that everyone had a fabulous summer!  It was short, but sweet!  Since the start of school two weeks ago, our class has enjoyed baking in our new kitchen and a class trip to the pool.  Looking forward to many more days of learning this year!

Picture day will be August 24th.

Grandparents days will be September 8th (3-5) and September 10th (K-2)

Have a wonderful spring break!  Enjoy!
