Today we started an amazing art project where we are working with wire to create sports figurines. We explored the different sports that are happening during the Olympics and picked a sport that is apart of the Olympics.

1) Class picture day: is tomorrow

2) One World Drumming: If you would like more information about what the student did today please follow the link to access Ms. Mann's blog.

4) Valentines day: For Valentines day students will be participating in a kindness art project where students will have the opportunity to write kindness notes on a piece of art to their classmates. This activity is being done in lieu of handing out valentines to assist in reducing waste. Please do not send commercial valentines as we will not be passing them out. Thank you for your cooperation.
