Weekly Spotlight 9/23/11

Week in Review
   What a fantastic week! In writing this week, we have begun to study the poetry genre and we have many aspiring poets!!! To showcase their talents, we will be working towards final pieces of poetry that students will have the opportunity to share to a live audience! More information regarding this event will be coming home soon, but the kids, I mean poets, are very excited!!!

Sorry for the confusion regarding the permission slip for the art museum. The field trip will be next Friday, September 30th. As noted, we are only allowed to take two parent voluteers and thank you to the several parents who offered to attend.
