Thursday, March 1, 2018 Dear Parents, Our next field trip is on Thursday, March 22. We will be walking to the Performing Arts Center to see Alaska Junior Theater’s “Step Afrika”. We will leave the school at 9:20 and return at about 11:45. Chaperones please meet in Room 177 by 9:00. I have sent home the permission slip for this trip in today’s folder. I also have a few other field trips scheduled that you can put on your calendar. On Thursday, April 5 we will be walking to the Anchorage Museum for a day of exploration. We will leave the school at 9:45 and return at about 2:30. On Thursday, April 19 we will be returning to the Performing Arts Center to see Alaska Junior Theater’s “Peter and the Wolf” from 9:20-11:45. On Wednesday, May 9 we will be taking a bus to the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center near Portage. We will leave at 9:15 and return at about 2:00. These are the ones that I have scheduled now, but I know that there will be plenty more. I appreciate all the chaperones that have made these learning experiences possible. The students and I appreciate your time! Thank you. Next week is the beginning of Spring Break for the students. There is no school on Friday, March 9 and students will return to school on Monday, March 19. We will not have homework until we return from Spring Break. We will celebrate the end of the 3rd quarter with a Read-In next Thursday, March 8. I will be serving waffles and juice in the morning. Students may wear pajamas and bring a stuffed animal, blanket and some good books to read. We will be participating in reading activities throughout the day. I have thoroughly enjoyed meeting with you all and celebrating your child’s success. I appreciate all you do on your child’s behalf. I love working with your children and observing their growth and maturity academically, socially, and emotionally. Thank you for all your help with field trips, spelling tests, laminating, making materials, listening to students read, sharing your expertise with the class, and all you do to make Room 177 and Denali Montessori such a wonderful place to be. If you have any questions or concerns, please e-mail me at moyer_craig@asdk12.org of call or write me a note. Sincerely, Craig Moyer
