Important Infromation

Good morning and happy Monday!

I hope you all had a restful break.  We are ready to jump back into school this week with a Storyline unit on community. We will be looking into what makes a community, problem solving, and differentiating our wants versus needs. As the kids are looking at jobs in the community we have an opportunity to dive a little deeper and let the kids explore jobs our community needs.  If you have time on January 14^th to come into school we’d love to have you come and talk a little about what you do. It’d be great if you could tell us your job title, what you do, and how you think it adds to your community.

            The next day, January 15^th, we will take a trip to the Portland Children’s Museum to further explore community jobs and the workspaces that those jobs need. We’d love to have you with us! We have five parent chaperone spots open for the first parents who let me know that they are available to come.  If you have the time for us we’d need you to lead a group of 3-5 students around the museum. Let me know ASAP because we only have five spots. We will be at the museum from 9:30-11:30. We will not have lunch there, but because our schedule will be so tight coming back everyone will need to bring a sack lunch. We will most likely miss our lunchtime so we will be eating in the classroom when we get back.

            We have so much learning to do and so much fun to have! I cannot wait to get started!
