Hello Green Cluster Families,
A couple of things to check off our list and we need your help:
The green drawstring backpacks will need to be returned and ready for the next field trip on 5/22. I know a lot of them got strawberry juices and dirt on them. If you don’t mind giving them a wash before returning them to school we would appreciate it.
If you haven’t turned in your field trip slip for the Botanical Gardens field trip, please do so soon. They were copied on yellow paper.
Shopping Day is coming up on 5/25! This is our culminating event where all of Green Cluster turns into a mall and the children apply the skills they’ve learned in addition, subtraction and money identification and value. We will send more information as we get closer to the date. It looks like there are 3 spots left. If you are interested click here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0E4DAAAB2DA2FF2-shopping3
