Happy St. Patty's Day! I'm sure you all heard about the mysterious visit by a
leprechaun at Killam today. He left surprises, notes and even took a run through the library chased by police! Our surprises might continue tomorrow...we'll see. Leprechauns are very mischievious creatures. There adventures are few and far between. Room 14 will have the eyes and ears open I am sure.



Tomorrow is our field trip to the Dinosaur Musical. I told the children that when you go to the Theater, you should wear party clothes. Its optional but would be nice.
Ask your children questions about the performance. It sounds GREAT!

On Tuesday, your child should where Cat In The Hat attire such as wearing stripes, red, black and white, hats and t-shirts. Our class will read and be involved with center projects around his story themes all week. On Friday, we will make Green Eggs and Ham with our 4th grade buddies. Yummy! Oh, The Places You Can Go! Enjoy your week and ask your students about what happened in Seussville today...

Our class has been exploring and learning about these interesting arachnids and spiders. They are intriguing and engaging creatures. Though scary looking they are quite harmless in most cases. Take a look at: kids.nationalgeographic.com. This site has a video on tarantulas and jumping spiders. The students were left breathless!
