Hula Hoop+Reindeer= Adorableness

 Have you ever seen a six year old with a hula hoop? It will change your life.

It's Time for Graduation

The graduating classes have been hard at work preparing for Wednesday's ceremony.  We'll be performing three songs we learned this year in music class.

The first is a cover by Bonnie "Prince" Billy, The World's Greatest



Next we'll be singing Do-Re-Me, a classic from the musical "The Sound of Music" written by Rodgers and Hammerstein.



Finally, the conclusion of the program will be Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In by The Fifth Dimension.  This song was featured in the popular 60's musical, Hair.



I can't wait to see you all graduate, but will miss hearing your voices every week in music class.

- Peter Strutt, music teacher

Pet Theme Last Week

 Nothing says 'personal responsibility' to a 6 year old more than owning a pet. Don't want that much responsibility? Then just draw one instead! We had a couple butterflies, a couple fish and a lot of rainbows. My personal favorite was John Johnson the fish with  rainbow streaks!
Hand drawn Colorful pets, in their natural habitat- taped to a classroom wall.
Koala Class had a great time at the police museum....until we ended the day in jail...Just Kidding!!
