Week 28!

Greetings 1A Families,

I’m excited to spend one more wonderful week with your children before spring break! 

This week, students will have a special opportunity to create a model of the earth's layers using play dough.  This project requires quite a bit of play dough so we are requesting donations.  If you are interested and able to donate, please sign up using the link below. We are thankful for what you are able to contribute.
