RE: Celebrate Ramadan & Worms

Tomorrow, Tuesday, we will "fast" for our recess snack and learn a little more about Ramadan and Eif El Fitr. Our recess fast will be totally voluntary and if a student complains of hunger, I will make sure they eat straight away. We will not be fasting water.

Talk with your child about whether they want to do this fast with the class or not. Although we all have different religious beliefs, I believe it is important to learn about all religions and cultures. Just like we talk about and celebrate other holidays like; Christmas, Easter , Birthdays, May the 4th, etc. I find this helps us with accepting diverse people we are in contact with.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Today we learned a little bit about worms! Ask your child one thing they learned.
