Important Dates:
February 12 - Library
February 14 - Early Release 12:15
February 26-March 6 - No School
IMPORTANT CLASS NEWS: Just a reminder to check all snacks for nut warnings. If there is not a label on the snack your child brings in, I can't let them eat it in the classroom. But, your child will be able to eat it in Mrs. Fox's room.
On Friday we went to the Flynn to see Pilobus: Shadowland. This show told a story through dance and shadows. (I've included a promotional video about the show at the bottom of this post.) We were lucky enough to win a free companion workshop. A teacher from the Flynn came to JFK on Tuesday and worked with each first grade class on how to create images using shadow. The kids were engaged and worked hard throughout the whole workshop.

We had great seats at the Flynn! We were in the front row of the balcony! The kids loved it! After watching the show, we made our own artwork based on images in the show. The students worked for an hour an half on these projects!
