Discovery Day T-shirt Competition Your Discovery Day Team is busy planning a fun and educational day for the students at Prairieview. To jumpstart Discovery Day, the PTO is offering the students a chance to design the annual Discovery Day T-shirt. If your child loves to draw, sketch, cartoon, etc. this is a great opportunity for him or her to show some school spirit by designing a shirt that could possibly be featured on this year's shirt! Students can submit artwork from Tuesday, February 21st – Monday, February 27th. Their work will be displayed (without names) in the lounge and teachers will choose three finalists. The Prairieview students will then use box tops to vote on a final winner. The winning t-shirt designer will be announced on Monday, March 12th and we will then follow this announcement with an opportunity for students to buy their very own student-drawn Discovery Day 2012 T-shirt. We hope for great participation from many young artists and wish good luck, in advance, to everyone participating. Please look for forms, later this month, in your child's backpack or your email announcing the start of the annual 'Design the Discovery Day T-Shirt' Contest'. Please see the attached flyer for more details!
YOUR DESIGN HERE!!
We need your help!

CARING & PATIENCE are our lifeskills for FEBRUARY!
This charming crew came to life when a pomegranate juice bottle reminded Family Fun crafter Kimberly Stoney of a certain frosty fellow.
Instructions: 1. To make a snowman, wash and dry a squat plastic jar or bottle (along with the
pomegranate juice bottle, we used nut and spice jars, a squeezable jelly bottle and an 8-ounce apple juice bottle)
2. With scissors or a craft knife, cut away the container’s bottom to accommodate a battery-operated tea light (an adult’s job).
3. Mix water and white glue to a creamy consistency, then brush it over the jar. Attach white tissue paper scraps and brush with another layer of the diluted glue. In the same way, cover the lid with black tissue paper scraps. Let the bottle and lid dry.
4. For the eyes and mouth, glue on small black beads, sequins or buttons. For the nose, brush glue over a cone of orange tissue paper, let it dry, and then adhere it.
5. Tie on a ribbon scarf and place your man over the tea light. Tips: Cones made from printer paper form a cool recycled forest. Simply roll paper into cone shapes, tape to secure, and trim the bottoms as needed so that they stand level.
