Happy Friday~
Hello Las Positas Lions,
Thank you for expressing your appreciation to our wonderful teachers and staff. We are truly blessed to work in this community!
As Mother's Day approaches, I want to take a moment to wish each and every one of you a truly special day filled with love, laughter, and appreciation. 💖 Being a mother is a superpower, an endless well of strength, kindness, and unconditional love. Whether you're a mom by blood, by choice, or by heart, you deserve all the recognition and celebration in the world! 🌷✨👩👧👦
Guess what? We've only got 3 weeks of school left! 📚🎓 So let's make the most of it, cherish every moment!
Now, let's lighten the mood with a little joke: Why don't scientists trust atoms?
Because they make up everything! 😄🔬
Remember to show gratitude to all the incredible moms who make our world brighter every day. Happy Mother's Day! 🎉🌟
This month we will continue to focus on the IB Learner Profiler REFLECTIVE
If you see your students in action as a risk-taker, post it on X, instagram, or facebook and tag us #LasPositasLions. Let us know with a proof of picture and we will give your child a pride ticket.
Have a lovely weekend!
Happy Mother's Day 💜

3) Explain why Ruthie's teacher took the teeny tiny camera to keep in her teacher desk over night.
4) Why did Ruthie have a stomach ache all night? Why do you think she started crying at night?
