Dear Parents,
I want to start by thanking you for being so supportive of our classroom and all the changes we have been going through these past few months in preparation for Michelle's beautiful baby William to join us. As this is my first blog post I will do my best to always keep the blog posted early enough to give everyone adequate time to read. Please always feel free to contact me via email if you have questions. My email is meridithd@willowwind.org.
Double check the spelling of the email address if I am not responding to you. I will check my email as often as possible over the break and keep email open during the school day.
We had a wonderful Community Night and I am so very proud of the Kindergartners. You should be so very proud as they worked hard to have a great night. Each of them wrote their own lines and rehearsed them so that reading them the night of the performance could be a great success; and it was!
Students handmade cards for Michelle, Brian and baby William on Thursday and we decided to deliver flowers and a balloon to her as well. Saturday I was able to deliver that gift along with a DVD of our Community Night performance. Michelle was so happy and surprised to get all the cards and the large vase of flowers. She was so excited to read them all and shared them with Brian and her family. She is very proud of all the hard work the Cottontails are doing and misses everyone. She says she may be able to come in and visit us after break.
I would like to wish you all a Happy St. Patrick's Day and may good luck always find you. With that being said spring break will go by very quickly. I have included a few reminders about the first week we will be back at school.
Monday, March 24:
Erica will be teaching a Yoga class. This helps the students with their flexibility, in both their body and mind. Yoga is great for our learners and the students enjoy it very much.
Tuesday, March 25:
Palmer is coming in to read aloud to the students. If this is something you would like to do please contact me and we can schedule a time for you to come in and read.

ICPL Field Trip 9:30 - 12:30
The Cottontails will plan to travel to the library with Grace and myself Wednesday, March 26th. Please be sure your child has their library card. The Cottontails will be working on finding a Just Right book for their growing reading brain. They will also be selecting a Book on CD for the classroom.
Please encourage your child to read the Just Right Reader with you. We have been working very hard on selecting books that are at our level. Not too hard and not too easy.

Our March field trip to Oaknoll is quickly approaching. We are in need of parent drivers for our field trip to Oaknoll Friday, March 28th. Please email me if you are interested in attending.
We will leave WW around 10:00 and return by 12:00. All students will need to leave a Booster Seat for this field trip.
While at Oaknoll Retirement Community, we will be reading with senior residents. Last month's trip to Oaknoll was a true joy as young and old came together and read, conversed, and enjoyed each other's company. It was a remarkable experience - one the Kindergartners are looking forward to being a part of again this month.
Thank you in advance for your help with driving. Trips to the Oaknoll community are only possible with the devotion of amazing parents like you.
Have a wonderful Spring Break!
Meridith
