We are into the busiest time of the year!  And it is hard to believe that it will end before we've realized it has started!  There are many upcoming field trips and special events in which I will try my best to keep you posted, but the agenda may be the best place for those announcements!  The Galbraith webpage is also updated with school events, so be sure to check it out on a regular basis.

April 15 - April 19

Well, hello winter!  Oops, I meant spring!  Umm, really, I'm not sure what season we are in and the weather is CRAZY!  So in thoughts and wishes of having a snow day we read "Snowed in at Pokeweed Public School" off of our 100 Books list.  The kids wrote about what the best part of being stuck at school in a snowstorm would be.  Ask them what they wrote!  We're hoping it doesn't really happen though.

Monday

Lastly, I have asked your child to bring in some photos of you Mom!  For an upcoming Mother's Day project we are in need of photos that include Mom with their child or just of Mom.  The pictures will come back to you unharmed but if you would prefer that we take a copy of it, we do have the capability or the pictures could be emailed to myself if they are digital.  I am hoping that the pictures range in "age" as old as your child is.  I can't wait to do this project!  Thank you in advance!

April 8-12

I hope you all had an enjoyable week off!  It was nice to come back this morning (in the snow!!) to see all the kids' smiling faces!  Really, we are on the home stretch with the school year and still a lot of learning to happen!  :-)
