Parents,
I hope you all had a wonderful spring break. It seems crazy that it ended with snow, but we do live in Utah.
This month we will be studying the ocean biome and Australia will be our continent study for the next two months. During our study this month we will be doing a close read on the book “The Rainbow fish” we will also be putting on a play. The play will be April 21st in the library. We will be combining with Ms. Joy’s class to perform two plays, “The Pout, Pout, Fish” and “The Rainbow Fish”. We will also be selling fish magnets the children will be making. The money that we earn from the magnets will be donated to a charity that helps preserve ocean biomes. I am not sure what it will be yet, as we hope to discuss with the children and have them help decide.
This week we will begin our study of oceans, start making fish magnets, learn the characteristics of fish, introduce Australia, learn about wheels and axels as simple machines, be introduced to shape in art, and learn to synergize.
We could use some help with our end of the year slide show. If there are any parents out there that are just dying to get their 40 hours in at home and have some techie abilities, we could use you. We have lots and lots of pictures that need to be complied together with music to make a slide show for the end of the year. We would then need the slide shows burned onto DVD disks that we would provide. If you are up for this, send me an email.

Thanks again for all you do,
