SNACKS
Pears are the expected snack on Monday. Grape tomatoes should be served on Tuesday.
Pears
Pear wood is used to make furniture, musical instruments, and wood carvings. It is also used to make wooden kitchen utensils because it doesn’t impart any color or odor to the food and because it is tough enough to withstand repeated trips through the dishwasher without splintering or warping. Architect’s rulers are made from pear wood because it doesn’t warp. http://www.healthdiaries.com/eatthis/20-interesting-facts-about-pears.htmlGrape Tomatoes

As it had been the previous day, the Nutcracker went of smoothly. Excellent work students! The hope is that each fall there will 1st-4th grade performance in the upcoming years. In recent years there has only been one play for older students performed in the winter or spring. A play by the older students will come early in 2017. More pictures can be viewed on the library TV.
