The title says it all. It was freezing at Twin Oaks last week. But, we still had a lot of fun. I still have the squirrel song stuck in my head! My favorite part was on Wednesday when we went outside at night and played “Park Ranger”. What was yours? (leave a comment)

D.A.R.E bowling
Posted by aaleckson in Uncategorized on November 8, 2011
On Thursday all 5th graders that are in D.A.R.E are going to Weston Lanes To Bowl. We will be leaving school at 9:15 and we will be returning around 11:30. You may bring a small amount of money for drinks and snacks while we bowl. We are going bowling to reinforce the idea that they are rewarding alternatives to drug use. That means There are so many more fun things to do instead of smoking like bowling would be one.
