Parent Reminders:

• Correction! Today was the last day of swimming! Classes will resume in the fall.
• Tomorrow, Tami will be taking the older WF group to the farm. Henceforth, the farm trip will be scheduled on a week to week basis. Remember, Charlotte loves for families to come out and you have an open invitation to go to the farm anytime!
• After checking our sunscreen reserve, we do have to ask that you bring in a bottle (spray, preferably) of sunscreen for your child as soon as possible. It goes fast!  This is not an item that WF provides for our families. Thank you so much for your attention to this.

While the swimmers were away, we discovered a basket of bean bags! Melinda set up a bean bag toss and each friend took turns tossing a bean bag into a turned over block.

Afterwards, we decided to make our own bean bags. We collected pea gravel, stuffed a cupful into an old sock, tied the sock up and used it to paint!

The independent work today included book reading, song singing and letter/number writing. Finn worked on writing familiar and new letters and Arleigh wrote her name and several numbers, by memory. We went on musical number hunts, listening for different meters in a variety of different songs and then tapping to the rhythm with wooden dowels. Afterwards, friends lined up all the dowels side by side and created a drum to play.

Wee Sprouts: Cucumber slices, Breakfast: Corn Chex and pears, Lunch: Chicken salad sandwiches on whole wheat bread, corn and a tossed salad.

Have a great day!
