Week 17

Weaving is hard work! For our First Friday activity, we tried to weave fabric like the early colonist. At our Brooklyn Museum visit, we learned that fabric was very valuable and with all the effort it takes, we know why! With a lot of patience and concentration, we were able to make some progress. Each child has their project and some more yarn to add on to the weaving board if they want to continue with the project. It isn't a homework assignment but almost all students expressed an interest in continuing it.

Green progress reports went home for our boys this week. Please review and sign for your son.

Here are some things to note for this upcoming week:
* We will have a meeting with our Kindergarten Buddies next Friday.
* Please continue sending in those glass jars! We need jars that are about 10-14 ounces big for a butter churning activity in February.
* Please return the trip slip for the Prospect Park Owl Pellet trip on February 4.

Have a great weekend!
