School Pictures tomorrow

Parents, just a reminder ...

Individual school pictures are tomorrow. At this point I have NOT received any forms/payments. If this is incorrect and you send in your child's form, please let me know ASAP. If you plan to send in the form tomorrow, that is fine, but please let me know.

I will be out tomorrow for the deaf-autism conference at The Learning Center but hope to be able to share information with you soon!

Have a great weekend!

Concord/Lexington Trip

We had a fantastic time on our trip today. The weather couldn't have been better (especially considering I'm hearing about flurries in the forecast for Wednesday!!) and the kids all did a super job despite several schedule changes!

First, we went to the Old North Bridge and met some of the park guides who were incredibly patient with the many, many questions our students had. It was such a beautiful area that it was hard to bear in mind that it was a crucial spot in the fight for independence.

Next, we went to the visitor's center where we saw a very well produced film that the kids really enjoyed. It was IMPOSSIBLE to interpret so bravo to Linda for doing an amazing job! Thankfully it was visual enough that the kids were enthralled and had a lot of good questions because of it.

Finally, it was time for lunch and a game of tag before heading back to school.

Hopefully this slideshow will work for you - this is a new program for me! Let me know if you have any trouble!

Halloween Monster Video!

I realized that you can't tell in the email that the last image is actually a video of the play!

Deaf Awareness Day

October 17th was Deaf Awareness Day for us at Horace Mann School.

Enjoying hot dogs at the BBQ :)

Very funny play by some of my favorite girls :P

Kayla's performance!

The boys practiced their Halloween Monsters play for 2 weeks but due to Chung's absence on the day of, everyone shifted roles and was ... well ... thrown off! Special thanks to Delila who stepped in at the last minute! She really ran with the punches and handled it all like a trouper!

Enjoy!

Don't forget - field trip tomorrow (10/21) so dress comfortably and pack a lunch!
