We are so excited for tomorrow’s trip. A few reminders…
Parent chaperones should meet at 9:00 am. I’ll take attendance, talk about expectations, some things to look for, etc. Then I’ll call in the parents and answer any final questions.
Parking for chaperones will be in the lot. I will meet you where we enter the zoo. You’ll see us! Car pooling is suggested.
Bring a lunch. Kids will be hungry early in the morning because they know food is with them.
Today I showed them pictures of some of the animals. We talked about different things to look for at the exhibits. Please help them with discovering new facts about the animals.
Wear comfortable walking shoes and be prepared for weather. This is Michigan, you know!
Upon arriving back at school, you may take your child home after checking in with me. NO CHILDREN ARE DISMISSED FROM THE ZOO. All must report back to school. If your child is not going home early with you, they will be dismissed at regular dismissal time.
Thank you in advance for coming along on this trip. Enjoy this time with your child. These days are precious.
See you tomorrow.

P.S. Our caterpillar, Stripey, has spun his chrysalis. Stripey is a Black Swallowtail.

Stripey has a brother or sister, Oreo, who just yesterday, spun it’s chrysalis.

We were quite the Scientists making observations and comparisons with the two chrysalis. Ask your Scientist about these two chrysalis.
