Dear Families,
Wow…
off the kids went to tour Shapleigh
School this morning. They will have a great tour and introduction to their
new school, will get a chance to meet many teachers and staff. I also think time to check out their
awesome playground has been scheduled in.
That fact alone makes it all worthwhile for many! I felt like a Mom saying goodbye to the
child knowing they are growing up.
Emotions of both excitement and sadness. I am happy for our students and it is always bittersweet to
say goodbye. It has been a fun year together.
Thank
you to everyone for returning all the paperwork associated with our many field
trips coming up. On Tuesday we will start by taking our
Kittery Point “hike
through history” walk. We will
walk by old houses and tombstones; visit the town docks and Pepperrell
Cove. On Thursday we will walk with Mrs. Perry’s class to the Kittery Art Association.
We will leave here around 11 a.m. and plan on being back here by
12:00. Please consider joining
us! The artwork is fantastic (all
Kittery students K- 12) and having the extra adults would be helpful. Thursday we will also have a history of
the Piscataqua River
presentation given by PJ
Johnson! We will end the week with
our annual visit to the PNSY.
Lots going on for us here next week.
And
our fairytale genre study is also picking up momentum! Not only are we enjoying reader’s
theater with some fairy tale classics but we are trying our hand at writing
fairy tale adaptations. It’s fun
but more challenging than expected!
Stay tuned on that…
Happy Memorial Weekend to you all~
