FLAT STANLEY
We have finished making our “Flat Stanley” people and are getting ready to write our postcards about Winnipeg and mail them off to other cities in Canada and the world. If you do not have anyone to write to, please let me know and I can ask a few relatives of my own to help us out. As well, I do have a couple of extra postcards if you cannot find one, but please let me know that as well. I would like to mail out our letters a.s.a.p. (Tuesday).

CANADA
Last week we made our own Canada puzzles and glued them back together. We have been learning about the provinces and territories and this week will be looking at symbols of Canada.

BUTTERFLIES
We have had 3 chrysalises crack open one at a time in our classroom and watched our Black Swallowtail butterflies emerge. We had a vote and their name was Diamond (all 3 of them). These were caterpillars/chrysalises from last fall that we had kept over the winter. We are now waiting for a class supply of newly hatched Painted Lady caterpillars to arrive, so that we can study the metamorphosis process a little more closely.

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!
To all of our mothers, have a restful and joyful Mother’s Day this weekend.
