Well March is here and the snow has begun to melt. Although the first day of Spring is on our March calendar, students are learning that the change of weather associated with Spring will be very gradual.

* The Scholastic Book Fair is happening in our Greenfield Library. Please drop by during interviews. Open Thurs. evening until 8 p.m. and during the day on Fri. until 2 p.m.

* I am still looking for parent volunteers to come to the CUP with us on Mar. 18. Please let me know if you're available. I think our time will be 11 a.m.- 1 p.m. Students will choose between swimming, skating, bowling or a combination of these. More information about Winter Carnival activities will be available soon.

* I am asking for each child to bring in a clean, empty CD case for an activity next week. Thanks!

* Your child should continue to do nightly reading over the March Break. It would be a great time to visit the community library. If you want me to prepare a bag of books for the classroom, I will sign them out in your child's name.

* After March Break, each student needs to bring a photo of themselves doing something on their week off school. It might be an indoor or outdoor activity, home or away. The photo is for a writing activity and it will not be returned. Photos are needed for March 29 please.
