Well, as you can see above we had a fantabulous time at the zoo. Jeff did a wonderful job bringing every single thing we have learned in science and reading class lately to life. It was amazing. I have made the slideshow interactive for you and your child. Have them sit with you as you watch it and answer the questions I ask. If you do, write ZOO in the planner for $50 tomorrow. I will say that the kids were amazingly well behaved. We got compliments from both Jeff and the bus driver. That is awesome. On a side note, please make sure that kids wear sunscreen, weather appropriate clothing, and a hat to our future field trips. There was some whining going on from some kids that did not do these things. It is a natural consequence if kids are uncomfortable when they could have prevented it. All in all though, we had a GREAT time. I HIGHLY recommend your family going out again this summer. Your kids will be experts on the animals. Plus, you have to take them back soon to see those baby otters when their mom brings them out in a couple of weeks. I can't wait! Make sure you stop in and say hi to Jeff as well.
Tomorrow is Hawaii day. Your child may choose to dress the part. Those that do, will earn $100. Please wear sunscreen and a hat. Kids also should bring a beach towel to sit on outside. We will be outside for at least an hour. Those that did not have their Hawaii folders completely done and done correctly will not be able to participate tomorrow. They will not get their $200 refunded either. They knew this when they left last Thursday. Choices...consequences. They are DUE tomorrow for a grade.
Mr. English has put out a challenge. It is national bike or walk to school week. Kids will be asked daily, starting tomorrow, if they walked or biked to school. Those that say yes at least two time will be allowed to put their name in a drawing for some fun prizes on Friday. Beautiful day for a walk or ride. :0)
Well, have a great night. Homework tonight is to play outside for at least a half hour. Enjoy!
