FIELD TRIP TO OAK HAMMOCK
We will be going on a field trip to the Oak Hammock Marsh on Thursday, June 23. This will be an all day trip and we will need parent drivers and chaperones. The children will need to bring a bag lunch (nothing that needs to be heated). I will send home more information regarding this field trip later on. The permission slip is coming home today. Please fill out the form and return it to school by Friday, June 10.

LIBRARY BOOKS
We are winding up our library time for the year. Please take a look around your house for any borrowed books and return them to school.

TADPOLES
Our tadpoles are getting bigger every day. We are feeding them chopped, frozen lettuce (It must taste like algae!) We are hoping to have some frogs (or at least froglets) by the end of the school year. And no, don’t worry, I told the children that we need to return them to their original home pond and that they could not take them home as pets. (You’re welcome! - J)

MATH MEASUREMENT
We have been working on measuring in math. We measured a bed, sized for ourselves using our own feet for measuring (3 feet wide and 6 feet long). Then we measured a little bed using little feet. The children decided that it would be just-right for LiQin’s baby sister, Yan. Finally, we measured a giant-sized bed using giant-sized feet. The giant bed outline is on the floor of the chapel area. Then we talked about the need for standard size measurements.
