“Wee Deliver”

Neither rain nor sleet nor dark of night will interrupt Francis Wyman’s “Wee Deliver” mail service.  Students throughout the grades write letters as our third graders deliver them in a small-scale simulation of a postal system. This activity encourages student writing in an authentic setting.   While students learn to properly write and address a letter, “Wee Deliver” encourages a sense of community between the grades.  “Wee Deliver” will begin Friday , February 5 and run through Friday, February 12.  Each room will have its own address so if you would like to mail a letter to your child (no packages or food please), drop it off in the mailbox by the office.  It must be properly addressed and must include a make-believe stamp, such as a sticker or a drawing.  A Classroom Address List will be distributed next week.

Fish Day for Francis Wyman K Students!

All Kindergarten classes participated in "Fish Day" this morning and I was excited to be a part of the fun and quite proud of the octopus I created!  Students crafted sea turtles, jellyfish, rainbow fish, shark hats, and sea stars to name just a few.  The colorful, creative display will transform the K hallway into an ocean extravaganza for the next few weeks.  Please stop by to view all their hard work.  Great Job Kindergarten team! 

Francis Wyman Service Learning Club

With support from Mrs. Casey and Mrs. Schnee, students from multiple grades volunteer their time and gather once a week to complete a project they selected that will improve our school and/or community.  During this session, students are working together to create a special banner for our school.  Stay tuned as we await the finished product!
