We are excited for the field trip on Friday. The students will come to school at our normal time 8:25. They will line up outside as usual. We will bring them into the classroom to put them into chaperone groups. All chaperones should meet in my classroom at 8:25 also. We will then board the bus and travel to Layton to the Aquarium. All parents will travel in their own vehicles and meet us there. When we get off the bus, we will meet downstairs outside the aquarium where they will have us in class groups. We will divide up there. If you have a pass will you please respond to this email and let me know the name your pass is under. I will give that information to the aquarium when we check in. Part of the donation went to Aquarium fees, the other part was to cover the bus. But it will help some to let them know you have a pass.

Your children are amazing. I do raise the bar a bit, because I know that they can handle it, but they still amaze me. I’m so proud of their GRIT. We talk a lot about giving your personal best in everything you do. But mostly it’s about not giving up when things feel hard or you don’t understand something. They have definitely shown GRIT over the past few weeks. Mrs. Barrett and I are so proud of them. As a reward we are going to spend some time on Monday playing board games. A few students have volunteered to bring their own games for the class to use. I will email you individually to get permission to use your game if your student was chosen to bring one. Obviously it won’t take up our whole day, but it will be so fun and rewarding. Thank you for sharing your wonderful children with us.
