Lesson Plans for January 9-13

Hi Parents,
      The take-off flight to Spain today was a great start to our Spanish culture study!  The students checked in their baggage and buckled up for a tour of Spain.  We look forward to all the activities this will involve.
      We are also blasting off to Space in Second Grade.  The students have been making rockets and astronauts to display their pictures.  We are looking forward to the fathers' field trip to the Planetarium on Tuesday, January10th.  We will leave Trinity at 9:00 and return by 11:00.  If any dads can't come we will have plenty of carpools.  Moms, grandparents, etc. can accompany your child instead.  In Monday folders, look for a note about our upcoming space project.
       *Just a reminder of the school holiday on Monday, January 16th.
