Week February 21 & 23

Dear Rainbow Families,

The Sweetheart Lunch turned out to be a terrific event for everyone.  It was so terrific to see everyone having such a great time. On Thursday I talked with the children about having their dads some to school for lunch. They all thought it was fun and really enjoyed it. Next month we will have our parent/ teacher conferences, so for the next few weeks I will be very busy doing assessments with your children.

Today I saw the basket that the Rainbow family did for the Fun-Raiser… AWESOME!

What great families we have to do so much for our school, thank you, thank you.

The children have been having a great time in the science area learning about ramps and tryin to predict which car will win the race coming down the ramp.  We will continue with ramps in the block area and start learning about levers in the science area.
