Dear RiverRun Families,
We had a very exciting music class on Monday. Carrie Styles will now join us on Monday afternoons to teach music. She will graduate from college with a music degree this spring. She teaches piano lessons privately too. It was a wonderful class; the children learned so much and enjoyed themselves. They learned the word polyphony by putting many sounds found in nature together to make music. We look forward to the 23rd when she will come next.
As a class we continue to study the Time Line of Life. The children really like this work. They get to study all forms of life from blue-green algae to the very first mammals who roam the earth and survived the great extinction of the dinosaurs.
A second very exciting event was THE SNOW! We are all so happy to see it. You may want to consider sending in extra socks. Their socks get wet from the snow, and it seems uncomfortable for many. If your child does not have snow pants, please remember to send them in.

Have a peaceful long weekend,
Amy and Debbie
