And the countdown is on.
Can you believe it?
We are down to only four more days of school. Wow. We have had a lot of fun this past year and its kind of surreal that it is all coming to an end. Time flies when you are surrounded by those that you care about and i know that we all care and enjoy each other. It is always bittersweet for me and it is especially that because of going to a new location next year. Having said that, it sure was great seeing so many people from the past coming through the Bayview halls on Wednesday. It was so special for me to run into kids I taught 30 years ago, mingled in with hugs from my kids now. My bucket was full!!! So once again there are some details for you here of some of the activities for next week.
Monday: (tomorrow) we will have our icecream treats with our buddy class. I will buy non-dairy treats for those with sensitivities as well, so do not worry..everyone will partake.
Then at lunch ( we will eat first, play later) the pizza will arrive!! yay. There will be cheese and pepperoni pizza, some carrots and some fruit. Please send their own water or juice. The children are pretty excited about our pizza party. Me too..they certainly earned it!!
Tuesday or Wednesday: we will have another beach day. It is weather dependant. If it is rainy on Tuesday we will go on Wednesday. But plan for Tuesday first. As before, we will leave right after recess (11:00) I found that that seems to be just enough time for the littles. Please send a lunch with your child as well as water. Remember that no money is to come to the school with the children as we do not let them go and buy anything at the concession stands. If anyone would like to walk with us, and join us...you are more than welcome. It's always such a relaxing and fun time.
Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday: we will be cleaning our desks out..it is all weather dependent as well. But please send bags along that they can take home all of their "treasures" Some have more desk treasures than others...and we will be cleaning everything out!
Thursday: as per tradition, i hand out bubble gum and we blow bubbles and dance. Do not ask me how this tradition started...but it did and thats what we do. If you do not want your child chewing bubble gum..let me know. But usually they chew for a while, try to blow a bubble, their jaws get sore and the gum is thrown out...it's always fun while it lasts. haha.
And with that...I just want to say thank you to a wonderful bunch of supportive parents. Thank you for everything that you have done. But especially thank you for your children and trusting me with them.They are wonderful!
Enjoy the pictures and I will see you all on Monday.
