Hello,
We got into quite a discussion today. We talked about molecules, (I brought in an old time molecule set), evolution, the first human beings, religion, extinction, why we have hair, what a milkshake is made from, why wind is cold, why we sweat... and on and on. It was varied. Ask your child about any or all of these things. You have some very curious children. Maybe not as interested in verbs, adjectives and multiplication as I would like, but we can meet somewhere in the middle on these things.
Some parents have asked if we are having a party. Not really. Some parents have asked if they could bring in a treat. Sure. We'll do some fun stuff in the afternoon on Thursday. We'll have some organized activities. We may play some musical chairs because I love how that game teaches good sportsmanship and how to win and lose.
I ask that if you feel the urge to get me a gift, please feel free to give to a local charity. A parent last year donated to Curtis Memorial Library and I thought that was great. It isn't that I will turn down gifts, it is just that I know that there are others that have more needs than I.
Thanks,
Mr. Shea
