Happy Cinco de Mayo! We had a dia muy excelente exploring various aspects of Mexican culture. If you cannot find your aluminum foil this weekend, check your child's room. We learned about a form of Mexican tin folk art called
"Hojolata." Each child has a masterpiece in progress. Maria came in, read us a fun book and brought a candy filled piñata to add to the learning and festivities!
lam thankful for you as class parents. I can feel the love and confidence that your care brings, as it overflows into our classroom.
