A Fond Farewell to Mrs. Sherman

Here we are at the last day of school!  Today and last week were filled with "lasts": the last time waking up Bear, the last story read aloud, the last book enjoyed and returned.  Of course, these are only temporary "lasts".  There's plenty more fun awaiting us far away in the fall.  But one of them truly marked an ending.

We're going to miss you, Mrs. Sherman!!!

Last week, we enjoyed the last assembly organized by our music teacher, Mrs. Sherman, because she's retiring!  I'm happy to say that she really did manage to go out on a high note!  (Pun intended, haha!) Every grade got to perform, and as always the music she selected was terrific.  I must admit I was especially charmed by the first graders' presentation of The Library Song by Tom Chapin and Michael Mark:

I thought this would be a fitting way to close my last blog entry of the school year: with a reminder to visit your public library!  Don't forget that there are summer reading programs that you can sign up for, and it's completely free.  

I wish you all a safe and happy summer break!

Keep reading!!!
