Thursday, 22nd - Individual Picture Day
Thank you Brubakers for your awesome contributions as Parents of the Month. Jason came in last Monday morning and introduced Very Hungry Caterpillar book. See picture to the right. The students loved having a parent read. Thanks also to Laurie Bradley for bringing awesome cutouts and puppet and telling the story of the Hungry Caterpillar on Friday. (I made the mistake of telling Hudson that you were coming and he grinned all day). A big thanks to Brandy Parsonnet for being Chapel Mom on Wednesday. The students say that they LOVED Chapel, especially Sarah Kate, whose big brother, Jake was one of the students that shared that morning
Artist of the Year...
This week we will introducing our Artist for the Year (in Kindergarten), John James Audobon. We learn that he is a student and lover of nature and came to be known as the "man who drew birds". We will take a good long look at his mallard duck picture. We will also do our very first picture study of McCloskey's drawing of ducks on Thursday and then a reproduction drawing.
