Dear 4X Parents,

Our wonderful LS Art Teacher, Sabreena, needs 2 parent volunteers from
4X (she needs 3 but we already have one) to help with one of the all
time best art projects -- the batik process! It is an exciting and
beautiful technique and it cannot happen without the help of many
parent volunteers.

Sabreena will need parent volunteers who can commit to a three to
four week consecutive stint in the art room. In other words, the same
three parents for all three or four consecutive weeks. They will
assist the students with the waxing component of the batik process.

No art background or ability is needed!!! This would be for the entire
2 hours that the 4X class is in the art room for those three to four
weeks. This is nothing but fun for the kids and for any parents who
volunteer. The parents would be “manning” crock pots full of hot wax
and passing Indonesian Tjanting tools to the students in order for
them to complete the waxing of their beautiful designs.

Sebreena will do a ½ hour training on the first day of volunteering so
that you are clear as to specifically how to do this and what
qualities they are trying to achieve in the waxing process. This is
why she would like to have the same parents for the duration of the
waxing process.

The proposed dates and times for the 4X class are:

Thursday, Jan. 27th from 12:30pm - 3:00pm (volunteer training from
12:30-1:00, the first 30 minutes before students come at 1:00)
Thursday, Feb. 3rd from 1:00pm -3:00pm
Thursday, Feb.10th from 1:00pm - 3:00pm
Possibly Thursday, Feb.17th from 1:00pm - 3:00pm

If you can help, please respond to this e-mail.

Thanks much and we hope you enjoy your long weekend.

Peggy and Estee
