Our new theme for this term is Castles.  Despite our distant circumstances, I hope we will get to enjoy our castle theme just as much as our pirate theme.  We will explore the theme through our class novel, other books on Epic, art, applied design, and even math (castles are made of cylinders, cones, and rectangular prisms, after all).  Castles, dragons, knights, horses, kings, queens, princesses and princes! Let the fun begin!

Parents, you can help by starting to save small boxes, and toilet paper/paper towel rolls for an eventual building project.  Can you guess what it might be? Empty boxes from granola bars, soap bars, and even some smaller cereal boxes work really well.  You have about a month to collect as our building project will start the first or second week of May.
