Happy chilly spring day!
The end of April is quickly approaching us and the Cottontails are busy at work hopping around to learn and grow. Here a few dates to mark on the calendar.Friday, April 18: Willowwind Day - Willowwind's Brithday - Students will be decorating pots to plant flowers in and display outside our school.
Tuesday, April 22: Earth Day - Students will be learning about our prairie and how to help the earth. We will be connecting our learning to WW's essential question of the year.
Thursday, April 24: Field Trip to Mercer Park - As our days become warmer, and with weather permitting, we will be walking to local parks to view the changing of the seasons and make connections to our growing plants science unit.
Friday, April 25: Field Trip to Oaknoll - We will travel to Oaknoll Retirement Community. Please help out if you can. Field trips like this are make possible by the generosity of parent volunteers.
All Kindergartners will need booster seats for this field trip. Please try to remember this as WW only has a couple extra boosters and if we do not have a seat for each student we have to cancel our trip.
Wednesday, April 30: Iowa City Public Library - Please have your student bring their library card as we will be taking our monthly trip to the public library. We will use city transportation to get to the library and eat lunch there. If weather permits we will eat and play outside.
I do apologize for the length of this post but I want to make sure each family has adequate time to plan for our school events. If you have read this far here is a cutie quote from the students this week:
"What animal eats chips?" - A CHIPMUNK!
Sincerely,
Meridith
