Parents,
This week we will be talking about the animals of the African rain forest. We will also talk about the parts of flowers and butterflies. We have some painted lady caterpillars in our classroom. With any luck they should be butterflies in about 2 weeks. We will also introduce our last simple machine: the wheel and axle. Our chicks are scheduled to hatch Wednesday. Everyone is very excited! I will keep you posted.

We will need some parent volunteers to help this day. If you would like to help please email me. In preparation for our field day we will be tie dying T-shirts please send your child with a white t-shirt to dye by Monday May 6th. This will be the shirt they wear on field day. Please let me know if you need the school to provide a shirt for your child to dye.
