See You Later Alligator!!!  This has always been a fun theme to end the school year.  We would make alligator pictures and alligator hats and even an alligator cake!  And we would enjoy our last few days together.  I have missed seeing all of you sooo much.  I look forward to seeing you, ever so briefly, on Wednesday at 11:00 am as you drive through school to pick up your last art projects and a few classroom items.  But for today, let's learn about alligators!!!
