Yesterday, we enjoyed a fabulous day at the Calgary Zoo! The weather was sunny and everyone enjoyed the bus ride and of course our ice cream treat. Our Kindergarten students looked very studious sketching a butterfly, chrysalis and a plant on their clipboards. Despite the heat, I was so very proud of everyone's ability to follow our schedule. Our parent volunteers, are appreciated and I hope they enjoyed our field trip.
Today, we had a vote for which two animals we would like to adopt at the zoo. Mrs. Polski assisted us in the voting process. Our results are a Penguin and a Tiger. Next week, I will proceed with the adoption process. Hopefully, we will receive our adoption certificate and information cards before the end of June. Additionally, I will give the Kindergarten students a (financial) report about how our plant sale proceeds were spent.
Our Home Reading Program is coming to an end. This week will be our last week for exchanging books. However, if you would like to proceed with your child's home reading for a few more weeks, or over the summer there are other options. You are more than welcome to continue taking books out of our Kindergarten Home Reading Library. You may come in at lunchtime or after school to exchange the books yourself. However, we do ask that all of our books are returned by Monday, June 19. We will need to wipe them down and store them for the summer. Additionally, our Calgary Public Library has many resources available for your child's reading and enjoyment.
