Word Wall
This week’s letter of the week will be the letter Dd again. We have a lot of fun with D words so far, hopefully we can add more to our wall this week. Next week I want the children to bring in anything they want for our pelican and we’ll talk about what letter it starts with.

The Carnival
The Carnival is this Thursday March 12th from 5 – 8. This is an inexpensive fun family night. There will be two bounce houses, a treasure dig, fishing game, face painting and a photographer will be there to take your family picture! Dinner will be served from 5-7 and will include hot dog, juice/water, and a cookie. Meal tickets can be purchased at the door for $6.00. Game tickets can also be purchased that night and are 4 for $1.00. The bounce houses will be 2 tickets all other games will only be 1 ticket.
We will host the Photography Booth, so I will be asking for volunteers to help with our booth. You can also sign up to help set for and clean up after the carnival, it’s a great way to serve your hour of volunteer work that is asked by the school.
We have also asked for items for our auction baskets, which are a
Gift Card Basket for the morning class and a Sweet Treat Basket for the afternoon class. We would like to have those items by the 10th at the latest.
The Hough Parade
The Hough Parade is parade that takes place downtown Vancouver on St. Patrick’s Day. Our school is going to walk in it this year, which I am very pleased with the sense of community and we get to wear our purple shirts. Purple and green go together right ? We will release at 11:30 that day so everyone wishing to participate or watch the parade may. We will meet on the corner of McLoughlin & Daniels Streets at 12:00 to check-in. The parade begins at 12:30. The theme is Yes We Can. There will be no afternoon class that day as we will all walk in the parade. Parents will need to accompany their kids if they are walking with our group. You can bring strollers or wagons, maybe even decorated ones!

Brown Bags and Class Murals
Wow we got some great stuff in our brown bags!! Make sure you check out the color sorting we did, they are hanging outside the class. I will also take pictures and post them for those of you who can’t make it into the school regularly. What the children didn’t sort out onto our color posters, we let them pick thru and decide what should go on our class murals. The class murals are turning out great, each child has had the opportunity to work on each mural that we’ve created. (If your child was gone this week they can add to the murals and color posters this week) They are creating some colorful and unique works of art!! Which by the way will be up for auction at the school Carnival.

This Week in the Sunshine Class
This is a busy week. We will celebrate Dr. Seuss’ Birthday by cooking green eggs and ham. We will be reading of course Green Eggs and Ham, & Hop on Pop, and One fish two fish. We will create some green eggs and ham art and play fish bingo. We will also finish our murals. In the middle of all of this the Humane Society is coming to our school ( Wednesday & Thursday) to visit the classrooms and talk about animal safety. AG is the volunteer that brings in Cooper, her very well trained dog, and the children learn how to react around strange dogs. It is a very helpful and informative visit. If you have any questions or concerns please don’t hesitate to contact me.
