Weekly Newsletter 
The Week of March 24th

Welcome Back!
We hope that you enjoyed Spring Break! We are ready to get back to school and are looking forward to doing our best work in the final 8 weeks of the school year! 

Inner-Earth Wool Balls
Our students have been working on making inner-earth, wool balls with Ms. Marisa, and they are so excited to bring them home to share with you. When the wool balls come home, please use a sharp knife to cut the ball in half and have your child share what they've learned about the layers of Earth with you.


Friday-Birthday Celebration
We will be celebrating March birthdays on Friday. If your child has a March birthday please send in 25 healthy snacks with your student to share.

Field Day T-Shirts
Orders are due Wednesday, March 27th! A copy of the order form is available below if yours has been lost.


Lower Elementary Art Show 
Please plan to attend "The Beauty of Words" Lower Elementary Art Show on Thursday, April 4th, 6-7:30. Light refreshments will be served.



Cosmic Education: 
A Celebration of Science

April 30, 2019 5:30–7:30
We will be celebrating science at Ellis with a Gallery Science Walk. Science experiments, investigations, inventions, and collections are encouraged and will be shared with friends and family. If your child chooses to participate, they can do one of the following things:

  1. write up a description of their work and set it up before the Gallery Walk 
  2. be a docent of his/her work and explain it to visitors passing by on the Gallery Walk

Our event is planned for April 30, from 5:30 until 7:30 p.m. If your child would like to speak about his/her work, they should plan to be there at 5:30 and stay “on duty” for at least an hour.

Please let us know if your child is interested and how she/he would like to participate.
