May 25, 2011

We learned some new forward rolls in gym class yesterday. See if your child can remember (and demonstrate!) the Pancake Roll, the Genie Roll, the Say-Your-Prayers Roll, or the straddle roll. Prepare to be dazzled!

I wanted to give everyone a "heads up" about a full day trip to the Palisades that we're planning for June 17th. We'll be looking for parent volunteers to help with this event, so if you're available and willing to assist us, please let me know. We'll send home details about the day in a note next week.

I've added a link to a website that has lots of good learning supports. It's listed as www.khanacademy.org on the side. Rattle around the site and let me know what you think!

The hummingbird webcam is showing that Phoebe's baby has left the nest and that Momma Hummer has already laid two new eggs! That's one ambitious hummingbird! The Canada goose webcam site has posted a video outlining the life of this year's eggs/gooslings. The first steps the babies take from the nest is particularly spectacular!
