ZOO PARKING PROCEDURE…
If you are driving and meeting us at the zoo
please read carefully. Park in either the parking lot next to the
main entrance or in the parking lot across the street to the north of the zoo. Pay at the main entrance ($16.95) and we
will meet you just inside the gate. Do not
come to the bus. This is
different than in the past.
ALL parents will need to have and wear
a name tag throughout the day. I will
give you your tag when we meet up with you inside the entrance.
All of children are assigned to be in
one of five groups. Each group will have
a parent that is in charge of the group.
If you are joining us please plan on staying with that group throughout
the day.

Library
Reading Eagle Party
(look for your child’s invitation in their homework folder). Each child may bring a small pillow or
blanket to the party.
FINAL WEEK of HOMEWORK
Your child’s homework this week is to
complete each task on the TEDDY BEAR page.
After your child completes one of the tasks they need to color it. On Monday the completed paper is due. It will be your child’s
ticket to our Teddy Bear Picnic (to
be held during our regular lunch time) on Tuesday, May 16th. Your child can bring a sack lunch from home or eat school lunch. They may also bring a blanket and a teddy
bear to eat with. Hopefully the weather
will cooperate and we can eat outside.
Community Workers
Last week we had so much fun role playing what community workers do! Like working in a restaurant, being a farmer, being in the
army, being a train conductor or train staff and train engineers. We were also construction workers and architects,
veterinarians, and doctors. Take a look!
Payton's father is a garbage collector. He showed us all sort of garbage trucks and told us how they work. We learned new words like: hydraulics and hopper. He also talked to us about recycling and how it is done.
Austin's father is in the air force and a surveyor and pilot when he is home. He taught us why it is important to learn math if you want to be a surveyor. You have to know how to measure. If you want to be in the air force you need to be very proactive and follow directions.
Community Worker Dress-up Day ~ Friday, May 12th
Your child should come to school dressed up as their favorite community worker. These ARE NOT fantasy, make-believe characters, or super heroes.
We will be taking a picture of each of
them. Please do not go out and buy a
costume. Get creative, look around your
house for props. (No guns or
swords). Take a look at last week’s blog
post for some ideas that children have done in the past.
- · Look for your invitation in your child’s homework folder
- · Have your child at the school by 8:45 am – come to our classroom
- · The children need to wear best dress
- · The children will be wearing a graduation cap – girls, no “poofy” hairdos
