Hi,
We had a great time on our field trip today. Thank you so much to Mr. Schmidt, Mrs. Gawthorp, Mrs. Turner, and Mrs. Spencer for volunteering to chaperone. We had a bit of a delay waiting for our final bus to arrive but the children were patient and we still saw most of the museum and had fun. Be sure to ask your child about their favorite part of the museum. I know that the Star of Destiny movie was a big hit with most of them.
This week is Earth Week and we will be celebrating witht the following activities.
TUESDAY 4/17- 3R’s (REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE) Day -Bring an item to school that Forest Creek currently recycles, place into appropriate bin, and keep it out of the earth’s landfills! (juice pouch, plastic water bottle, ink cartridge, cell phone, alkaline battery, and aluminum cans). Keep using your Forest Creek green reusable water bottles! Available for purchase through the PTA Spirit Store. We will be sharing our recycable items in the AM.
• WEDNESDAY 4/18- Make that change day. Wear Green! How will YOU be better to the EARTH? Pass it on to a friend. (Fill out the small Green card located in envelope on the Go Green bulletin board and post it onto the bulletin board! -HOW WILL I HELP THE EARTH?)
• THURSDAY 4/19 Turn It Off day –Try conserving electricity, water, and reducing carbon emissions around your house (turn off water while brushing your teeth, turn off your computer, room lights, fans, walk don’t drive!). Don’t forget….tomorrow is ‘Walk to School’ Day to help celebrate Earth Day by keeping fuel emissions out of the air!
• ‘WALK TO SCHOOL’ FRIDAY 4/20 Go Green…Got Plants? – Go Green Plant Sale today… $1.00 per plant. And, be sure to check out the Forest Creek gardens…the whole area is really growing with numerous plants and beautiful outdoor art made by our very own students and our wonderful art teachers!
Don't forget that our famous Texan essay and projects are due on Thursday.
Sincerely,
Pam Bartholomew
