Dear parents/guardians,
We've created a Families Hub page on our websites and Mobile App to help families find the resources they need. We hope to make this a one-stop-shop for parents, guardians and families. Just click "Families" from any of our websites, or the mobile app, or click here to preview the Families Hub - https://www.sau18.org/page/families
Don't see something you want on the Families Hub? No problem! You can find a link at the bottom of the Families Hub where you can make suggestions.

A huge thank you to the Franklin Fire Department for coming and talking to the 3rd grade about fire prevention and safety!
Dots, Colors and Lines Oh My! The students have enjoyed kicking off the school year learning all about the elements of art! We began the year with a schoolwide collaborative art project based on the book "The Dot" by Peter H. Reynolds. Students in second and third grade practiced their lines with playday before beginning their rainbow line projects with paint! Our Kindergarten friends created some ROYGBIV smiles to showcase what they learned about rainbow order! We can't wait to use these skills in our future artwork!

Kindergarten has been exploring Apples this week! We have talked about what we want to know and taste tested. Today we worked on weighing apples and creating paintings, signs, and money to open our very own Apple Orchards next week!
Today is National Do Something Nice Day so Mrs. Gregg's class talked about how it's important to do nice things for people. Not only does it make the person feel good but it also helps us to be happier and healthier.
It is also Mrs. Weaver's birthday so we made and delivered birthday cards to her.
A tremendous thank you to the PTO for working to secure a donation of 50 yards of mulch for the playground. The PTO members and other volunteers spent some time on Tuesday spreading the mulch!

Summer Art Club at Paul Smith has been busy creating this past week! We created our own 3D collage/mosaics inspired by Philadelphia's "Magic Garden" art installation. We also welcomed artist Jean Reed who taught us about basket weaving. We made our own weavings and we were able to practice weaving on a class basket! Finally, we studied the artist Dean Russo, and created tigers based on his multi-media masterpieces! More art fun to come this week!
