May is in Full Swing

Poetry Afternoon
This afternoon (Friday, May 6) from 1:30-2:30. Hope to see you then!

Zoo Trip
It was a huge success! The kids got to see the animals, very active. The weather was beautiful and the kids experienced all they wanted to see. We plotted out their strategy before we went, so they got to use their map skills, too!

Insect Field Trip
We will go on May 16 to the Smith Center. Please send in your child's $6.00 as soon as possible. This ties in directly with our Life Cycle of the Butterfly Unit, which brings me to...

Science Updates
The caterpillars have arrived! We will start our unit on Monday, May 9. The kids will get to have their own caterpillar to observe as it morphs into a new creature. This is a very exciting time of year.


International Night-May 12 6-8pm
Thanks to those who have agreed to present their country day reports. This will be happening in the Media Center during International Night. Even if your child doesn't want to present, please come out for it! It will be a wonderful event celebrating all our diversity at GES.

Thanks for all your help and support!
Ms. Howard
