The Splash
February 7, 2022
Hello, Dryden Families!
We hope you have been enjoying the many delightful sights, sounds, smells and festivities of the fall season! Use of our five senses - or noticing and describing sensory details - strengthens student vocabulary, reading comprehension, descriptive writing, scientific observation and social emotional awareness. We have been enjoying rich conversations about sensory details with our students as the seasons change. We hope you are enjoying them, too, especially next week when students will not be in school October 19 - 21, due to Institute Day and Parent Teacher Conferences. Please note: Due to a short week with students next week, the next Splash newsletter will be emailed to families on October 23, 2022. Wishing you a great Dolphin fall season!
:) Akemi Sessler & Beth Glass
PS - There IS school this Monday, October 10. We look forward to seeing everyone at Dryden!
