        Spirit week is over and thanks to everyone that got dressed up and participated in this fun event.  I took some great pictures that I will post very soon.  It looks like Sports Day will need to be postponed again.  Once I know the new date I will let everyone know.  I almost have everyone’s money for the March 31st field trip to the glass museum.  Let’s all cross our fingers and hope that the weather will be warm and pleasant for us!  We are continuing with our dinosaur unit until our April break.  Next month we will be studying community helpers.  There will be many field trips during this fun unit, almost one a week!

People learn something every day, and a lot of times it's that what they learned the day before was wrong.
