Space and Solar System Theme

Hello Friends and Families!
We had such an awesome royalty/fairytales theme over the past two weeks and all of the children looked so great for our royal ball we had at the end of the theme! We are moving into our next theme, Space and The Solar System. We will also be incorporating some St. Patrick's Day activities since it is this week. We have a lot of great activities planned and these will be the last two weeks of school until we have Spring Break! YAY! Thank you for all that you do and feel free to stop in my room anytime before or after school if you have any questions about the upcoming Spring Progress Report meetings coming up after Spring Break.

Thanks!
Sarah
