Happy Saturday!
We let our butterfly go Tuesday. What a beautiful sight to watch it take flight. The kids loved it and clapped as it took off. What a wonderful experience.

We had a wonderful day Thursday with our International Day of Peace Celebration. Andrew Kutt gave a wonderful assembly and taught us a lot of fun songs. I purchased his CDs for our classroom so we could learn more songs. As a school we all made pinwheels for peace. We had an enjoyable time doing this in class. Unfortunately, ours got ruined by the sprinkles before there were able to be moved. We will be making more this week that the students can take home and show you.
Our plant experiment is finished. We analyzed the plants as best we could. It was a bit difficult because they started to smell so I put them outside. A day or two later we had that really windy night and all but one of the plants blew over. Three of them even blew out of their pots. But we were able to deduce that mild did the best and vinegar did the worst. We used the scientific method to do this experiment.
This Friday is a half day. Teachers will have professional development in the afternoon. Please arrange for your child to be picked up at 1 pm.
I hope you all enjoy the rest of the weekend.
Take care.
