Hot Fun in the Garden and Field

6/10/2019

 
Dear Friends, 
We're comin' around to the end of this school year.
Who would believe it?
On Monday, June 10, we blast off to Sauganash with 6th Grade, Room 305, to do water quality chemical tests. The students all get to enter the river in waders to collect creatures that live in the river bottom. And they will get to re-visit their beloved Sauganash, to wander through its lush greenery, to find a spot to sit, and to reflect on what they have learned about the river this past year.
We leave at 9:30, we picnic at 12:15 and should be back to school by 1:30
I hope you can join us!
The same trip will go for 
Room 310 Wednesday, June 12, and
Room 304 Thursday, June 13

Tree Book!!!!!!!!!
It's time to assemble 90+ "Field Guide to the Trees of Waters School"  for the first grade. 
I need 90+ volunteers (Just kidding)  Let me know if anyone is available to help, at any time.
I believe the Tree Olympics will happen on Monday June 17. It would be great to have the completed books  available for that date. 

Tuesday, afterschool from 4:30 until 6:30 Waters will be hosting a Citywide Gardening workshop!
And Wednesday afternoon, June 12, 8th grade will be making pizzas and icy juice beverages  to eat and drink. The pizza oven will be fired up!
After school Waters' BAC (Bi-lingual Advisory Committee) is hosting a pot luck in the garden. Pizza and music may be involved with that.... overlapping into Garden Night, with pizza! and work!.

Let's get it Done!
Mr. Leki
