Youth Art Month 2007

Dear Parents or Guardians,

	This is the third year that Penn London is celebrating March as 
Youth Art Month (YAM).  We are going to join thousands of schools across our
nation in commemoration of the national celebration.  This observance is in
recognition of the contribution made by visual arts to the total education of
our children.

        Your family’s participation is requested in our YAM 2005 project. 
“The Holy Cow Pow Wow” is this year’s theme.  Our murky moovers will be in the
limelight throughout the halls of our school during the month of March. 
Please be a part of this event by preparing a YAM cow with your children.

	Your child will be coming home with a tag board cow in addition to 
this letter.  To help your family I have chosen names from the list on the
back of this letter.  This could help you decorate and help capture your cow’s 
character.

	Choose a night or weekend to get together and create your cow prior 
to the due date of MARCH 1st, 2005.  Clock yourselves and cover that bovine
beauty with color, collage, and cowabunga, cowtastic creations.  Put whatever
you want on your cow to capture its aroma, but please remember-permanent items
only!  FOOD ITEMS THAT WILL SPOIL ARE COW-DAVEROUS!!
  
       Finally,post your bovine name on the front along with your child’s
name, family color, room number, and cattle drive them back to the art room
and corral them into the barn for the YAM exhibit.Our moovalous cows will be
in our school during the month of March. Sway on down the cow path and milk an
opportunity to catch these curvaceous, bovine cuties!

Thanks, Mrs. Shiley


Cow Names to Choose From:

Choose one of these names, or come up with one of your own.  Try to make it
“Art” related.  Your cow should be decorated to fit the name you choose.
