It looks like I'm going to have to postpone our heritage feast until next week. I found out today that several students will not be here at lunchtime on Friday, and I would really like everyone to participate. I've rescheduled for next Wednesday (5/26). I hope this will work for everyone. I will send home an updated information sheet tomorrow.

Thank you.

Hello,
It was great seeing you all last Thursday at Open House. Your children have done wonderful work, and it was fun for me to watch them explaining their projects to their parents and friends.
I've really been enjoying reading their heritage reports (I will give them back next Mon.) and appreciate all the effort each family put into the project. Hopefully this report will become an important keepsake to be shared with future generations!
We've talked in class about having a "heritage feast" this Friday which would feature favorite family recipes from our class members. I know this is a busy time of year, and I don't want this to be a huge undertaking for anyone. A simple, easy to make dish would be great! I'll send home more detailed information tomorrow.

Thanks!
