St. Patrick’s Day!

That tricky leprechaun showed up today and left money in their traps without getting caught! He also brought leprechaun juice which Mrs. Bischoff found out she wasn’t supposed to drink. She didn’t read the warning label and ended up with green feet!! He shrunk the hats we left him and made a mess of our room! It was quite an eventful day!

I also caught a few leprechauns myself! Enjoy your day off tomorrow!

We are preparing for a possible visit from leprechauns!  Please help your child with the project as described on this worksheet below. This is not required but will only take place at home so if your child does not make one at home time will not be given during class to make one. 
Please have your traps ready and back to school by Wednesday March 16th. Leprechaun Trap

Heredity
In our next science unit, we will be exploring the similarities and differences in characteristics when comparing offspring to parents and siblings to siblings.  This is especially fun for the students if they can bring in pictures of themselves and their families.  If you are able to send in a family photo, or a one page collage of the members of your family in a 
protective plastic sleeve by Wednesday, March 16 , I will hang them up for the students to observe, but not touch.  Bonus points if you have a picture of yourself around your child’s age! :) 

If your children are adopted or in a blended family, your pictures are most welcome!  Even biological families often don’t look like each other and it gives us lots of examples to talk about.
