7 WEEKS LEFT...THAT'S ALL!!

Just thought I would give you a run down of what I have planned (hopefully it all goes as planned) for the LAST 7 WEEKS (can you believe it? Where does time go)

Next week: We will be learning "This Land is your Land" (track 3)...only the first verse and chorus though...don't worry about the rest. ( we have already done the first 2 tracks)

APRIL 9th--THURSDAY--Easter Party...we will be DYING Easter eggs...so please don't send them in their best clothes--we have never had an accident yet...but you never know. ALSO PLEASE BRING 6 FILLED EGGS on this day for our hunt. It can be candy, chocolate, or little toys and stickers, etc...I have seen a lot of little fillers at wal-mart for cheap. Your child will bring home 6 different eggs. It will be a great day!

Week 14-16--We will learn "These are the continents" (not on your CD) and continue doing some of our ocean theme.

Week 21-23 We will learn "God Bless the USA" (track 4). We will also learn the letter "W"
Depending on the weather: on April 23 we will have 'W'ATER DAY (Just for the last 20 minutes of class or so...I have lost all my connections with friends with big back yards that live close..so we will just be doing it here) we will just be doing water balloon toss, and some water relays, etc...and we will end the day with some popsicles!! :) Please plan on having them wear their swim suits (with clothes over) to school that day!

APRIL 27th-- A MONDAY-- A FIELD TRIP TO A GROCERY STORE (haven't booked it yet...on my list to do tomorrow...so hopefully we can do it this day) More details to come.

Week 28-30-- we will be practicing what we want to be when we grow up, but more importantly we will have a BAKE SALE on the 30th. (After touring the grocery store...we are going to create our own store...bake lots of goodies as a class...and invite you to come shop at our store!!)
It will be the last 20 minutes of class on the 30th...anyone is invited...grandmas, neighbors, cousins, friends....it's REALLY cute (at least I think so). Everything will cost $0.25 so start saving!! :)

May 5-7-- We will work on Mother's Day projects!! (Happy Mother's day to all you wonderful super moms) and practicing practicing practicing!!!

May 12-14-- We will be making all of our graduation decoration including our SHIRTS...this is the week that I will need you to bring in ONE PLAIN white shirt for your child (please don't spend a lot of money...I have seen them for $3.00 at Wal-Mart and $2.50 at michael's, etc...or feel free to use one you already own. I would rather it didn't have a pocket it on it, but if that's all you can find that is fine. I will also ask that you don't wash it after we have "made" it so if you are obsessed with washing clothes before you wear them, please wash it BEFORE you give it to me. Thanks!!

MAY 18th-- A MONDAY...THERE WILL BE SCHOOL TO MAKE UP FOR NO SCHOOL THURS. (The field trip in April is helping to make-up no school Wed.)

MAY 19th-- LAST DAY OF SCHOOL... GRADUATION THAT NIGHT AT 7 (GRADUATES WILL HAVE TO BE THERE BY 6:45). PLEASE CHECK YOUR SCHEDULE NOW TO SEE IF YOU HAVE ANY CONFLICTS...I will be doing it at my church house and it's a very busy time of the year, and hard to get a day so I had to settle for this day (the public schools get out this week as well...so check HS graduations, seminary graduations, and awards nights that your other kids might be having, etc) if this date is a problem for any of you please let me know ASAP and i will go back to the drawing board!! ALSO THIS DAY...Depending on how well they have learned everything we MIGHT do a "DRESS REHEARSAL" that day and have school there...You will just drop off and pick up there...we will just practice over and over, and maybe watch a movie for a few minutes at the end if they nail it...so classes would be combined that day probably in the morning...more info to come, but beware of that change possibly!! Depends on how well they are doing and if I can get the building for the whole day.

I think this just about covers it all for the next few weeks. It will be a very full few weeks with lots of fun things planned. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE try not to be late and definitely not miss (unless you're sick of course!!) Thank you so much!

Let me Know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns about ANY of this!! Thanks!
