Classroom Reminders

Hello Families -

I wanted to remind you about our community service project of gathering items for families in need who are served by the Northeast Parent and Child Association. We'll be collecting unwrapped new items until Friday.

Also, I apologize that we didn't get a chance to post photos from the NYS Museum field trip on the blog last week after I told you to take a look at them.  Teresa Foster has been posting photos for us all fall and I thought I might be able to do that in her absence (the Fosters are away on vacation), but I cannot seem to figure it out.  So those photos will get up there later on.  In the meantime, a big thank you goes out to the parent drivers for transporting and helping to chaperone our students. Thanks Rob, Kate, Teresa, and Debbie.

Finally, I'm writing with the ordering information for our Chinese Food Friday this week.  We are going to sample four different dishes from the Lucky Wok lunch menu:

Beef with Chinese Vegetables
Shrimp Lo Mein
Chicken with Broccoli
Chicken with Cashew Nuts

We are asking that each student bring in $3.00 to cover the cost of a half portion of lunch and a half of an egg roll.  Please also pack a larger than usual snack for Friday in the case that they don't actually prefer the taste of the food they are sampling.  We'll be getting both white rice and Chicken Fried Rice with the meals.  Hopefully everyone will find a little something they like, but it's expected that not everyone will like it well enough for a whole meal. Mainly it will give us the opportunity to try out a new type of food and practice with our chopsticks in a fun, buffet-type atmosphere.  If you know that your child prefers only one of the above four choices, please send me an email back to let me know that. 

Thanks so much, Nancy Adis
