PEP Enrichment
Music Corner from Teacher Lawrie
We're singing a lot in music class these days. Ask your children to sing a few songs for you! Ask your Kindergartners to sing "We live in a house." Your First graders can sing "The Big Rock Candy Mountain." Second graders just learned "This Pretty Planet," and Third Graders are learning an old folk song, "Polly Wolly Doodle".
Besides singing, we spend time playing the percussion instruments, including the drums and triangles. More recently, the students have been playing the Xylophones, Metallaphones and Glockenspiels. Be sure to mark your calendar for the Spring Concerts! Our students will be performing many of the songs and dances they've learned in class.

Dear Pali Families,
The auction is finally here. Thank you to everyone who donated and collected all the amazing items available. Now its time to bid! Check out all the great itemas at www.PALIGALA.com.
This week at pick up you can view class ceramics at pick up in the Library. At drop off you can buy gala tickets, raffle tickets or bid for teacher adventures. Because so much is going on this month, there will be no PEP meeting in March. We look forward to seeing you in April.
As a reminder, this Wednesday and Friday are minimum days and dismissal will be at 1:05pm those days. Optional parent-teacher conferences are also this week.
Sincerely,
Your PEP Co-Chairs
Keri Kraft, Lindsay Hubbard and Daphne Gronich
