This week will be a busy and fun one! On Wednesday we are walking to Fulford Creek to release our salmon and doing water testing with Cate McEwan. If you would like to join us we are leaving the school at 9:00. On Thursday we are glazing pottery and the Spring Showcase is in the afternoon. A reminder that I would like the forms for the April 30th sleepover in ASAP so that I can see what activities we will be doing with the students. I'll send you a detailed itinerary of the sleepover soon. Our class has decided on a play we will be performing for the school. It's Treasure Island and is tentatively scheduled for performances on June 10 and June 11. We are practicing reading the play and students will be choosing parts this week.
