This week is Red Ribbon Week, so the students will be doing fun things each day.  We have dress-up days planned and a poster contest that our very own student leaders will be judging!

Today the students enjoyed watching some YouTube clips of baby orangutans in preparation for our story this week titled How to Babysit an Orangutan.  They have lots of questions they hope to have answered as we read the story!

-Miss Staudt (Tristan will be writing for the rest of the week - he just forgot to give Miss Staudt his notes for today!)
