Dear RiverRun Families,
We had a full and exciting week. Our trip to Mabee Farms was great. The program was well planned and executed by
the staff. The children were engaged the
whole time. In the latter half of the
day Dee Strnisa joined us. Dee is a NYS
Wildlife Rehabilitator. She brought with
her rescued animals and talked about their habitats. She took us to a small pond and identified
the life in the pond. She had a wealth
of knowledge. We could easily spend a
whole day with her.
On Thursday Suzanna Van Schoonhowen Hunter worked with the
children on making sculptures out of natural clay. She was very interesting and worked really well
with the children. They are looking forward to meeting with her again to paint
their sculptures. In the afternoon Marc
met us and we all walked to the Union College track. Marc has been doing a track unit for P.E. so
he wanted to give the kids the opportunity to run on a real track. Marc inspired them to concentrate on doing
their best; they ran hard and really focused.
The weather has been spectacular; let’s hope the weekend weather
is as well.
Best Wishes,
Amy and Rachel
