Thanks to all the kiddos who joined both our Native American story time and the conversation about Indigenous culture in today's world. We all learned something new, and we look forward to keeping the conversation going.

Tomorrow we'll have a Spanish lesson and a Dragon art project . Please have worksheets printed out for the spanish lesson, along with some crayons/colored pencils/markers. Hard copies are also available at school in the large bin next to the office door, if you can't print at home.

Don't forget to pick up your art kit from school. Even if you can't join the art zoom tomorrow, you can still do the project on your own another time (instructional video will be shared).
