Good Afternoon:

  We had a wonderful day today.  We worked on our pen-pal letters, graphing our jumps, wrote in our Weekly News journals, and practiced our play.  This afternoon I received an e-mail that contained our itinerary for the Statehouse trip.  If you are a chaperone/driver please take note of it.  Your child will need a cold lunch that day.  If your child would like the school lunch program to provide one, please let Connie know.

**Also, we will be going on a field trip on June 8th with our pen-pals from Waterbury.  We will be picking them up at TBPS around 8:30 that morning.  We will then head to Oak Ledge Park in Burlington for a day of fun.  I will need each child to bring in $4 to cover the cost of the pavilion.  As always, please let me know if the cost is an issue.  I would love to take as many chaperones as possible.  Please let me know if you are able to go.

Thanks,
Tom
