Ok, so we have rehearsed our film a few times now, and are filming the actually play tomorrow (Friday). The kids were asked to simply wear their costumes to school. I have a few spare plaid shirts for the kids that don't have them, so no worries there. Again, I ask that folks not run out and purchase anything for our production. We have plenty of props, etc.
We'll run through a dress rehearsal first thing in the morning, and then start our filming after a short snack break. I have some trail mix....yum!
If time permits, we'll continue working on the Monarch mural. We are able to get the first coat of colors on today! The classes meandering by us while we worked were very jealous!
There are just a small handful of students still needing to submit permission slips and $10 for the KOA day next Wednesday. If you're one of 'em, please get those in ASAP.
Respectfully, Mr. B

This week
Howdy all. Thanks again to everyone attended last Thursday's Open House. It was great to see everyone!
This week is set to be an interesting one. I'll be spending some time at school tonight prepping the mural for the kids to begin working on tomorrow. If at all possible, please send the kids to school in clothes that can be dirtied. We will be using oil-based paints THAT DO NOT WASH OFF CLOTHING! If all goes according to plan, we'll finish the mural by the end of the week.
On Thursday and Friday, we'll be filming our Gold Rush film. The kids were asked to wear plaid or flannel shirts and jeans for those two days. If cowboy hats are around, by all means bring them in. Bandanas and the like are more than accepatble as well. For the ladies portraying Little Nell and Kate, dresses would be ideal. Please DO NOT go out and purchase props or supplies for this film. We can make due with what we have.
Green Folders are light again this week. I'll remind folks who have yet to return permission slips for either of next week's trips to do so ASAP. We do not need drivers for the beach trip, as we are walking, but chaperones and / or drivers would be more than appreciated for the KOA excursion. Please let me know if you'd like to come along. It's sure to be a fun day!
