The Days Are on the Way

Hi everyone,

Our new tin punch project for Colonial Day was practiced over the weekend with actual fifth graders. There were some major kinks. I thought a bigger can would be sturdier for the kids and easier. Of course, I thought wrong! They couldn't nail a hole through it! So, we emptied some small condensed soup size and they could nail through them much easier. So, if you don't mind mentioning to the children (I emailed all of the Colonial Day volunteers already) that we need small, condensed soup cans for Colonial Day that would be great! Tell them to run them through the dishwasher and bring them in and give to Claire Hatton. Maybe put a collection bag in the hallway for her? If you want to forward this email to your classes that would be great too. We need 70 more by this Friday!

Thanks!
Corinna Ottinger
