6/6 Update

Dear Families,
We are REALLY excited for tomorrow at 8:45 and want to thank David Mason, Michele Lucca, and Dominique Sommer for their theatrical coaching.
Thank you to everyone who made a costume (they're incredible) or sent in props. We appreciate your effort and support!
The show tomorrow will probably be a typical 4th grade performance and I'm sure there will be mishaps, but I want to emphasize that the whole experience is about the process and teamwork. From the brainstorming, writing, painting, planning, creating, memorizing, and revising, it's a genuinely unforgettable learning experience.
After the show, the kids will have well-deserved treats (please supervise your child's consumption) and share their portfolios with you.  It may be raining, but plan to spend a few minutes in the school garden.  We will watch a slideshow of the year and when you leave, I will give you your child's continua. Don't let me forget to give it to you!
Last thing- on the last day of school I raffle off classroom items.  Everyone will get to take something, but some items need parent permission/transportation, i.e. Squirt, sets, a red chair (that's missing some hardware/held together with tape, but probably repairable), and plants. Please talk to your child about this, so we don't have any last day tears. 
Hope to see you tomorrow,
Renee
