The students filled the bead jar and have selected an outdoor toy day which we will do after our 1st recess at 11:35.   They may bring any outdoor toy that you say yes to.  Please note if they bring a bike they should also have a helmet.  In addition, we will be watching a show about plants (our current science unit) while we eat our popcorn from Popcorn Friday so they may bring a clear drink.    If they want something soft here tomorrow that is also fine.  Please email me with any questions.  Thank you!
