I was able to be the guest reader for a wonderful class.  It was Mrs. Roe’s 1st graders. I read Pete the Cat, and the Cool Cat Boogie by Kim and James Dean. It was so fun.  We even danced to some cool music and showed our unique and special moves.

Teachers are sharing some of their favorite books.  I have always loved Amelia Bedelia Books.  I used to LOL (laugh out loud) and love reading them as a kid and then loved reading it to my own kids.  Amelia is silly, goofy and likes to always have fun.  Kind of like yours truly.

We are starting the new year 2019 white and Green!! Kindergartners learned about Recycling so we are using our white paper because we want it to SNOW!! It was so fun to make our own creative and unique snowflakes for our bulletin boards.

Can you catch the gingerbread man? (or girl?) 5th graders had to imagine, plan and construct a trap to catch those pesky gingerbread man or woman. They used materials around the room and worked with a partner.  The traps were very elaborate, creative, and impressive! Great job 5th graders!!

What will happen to the candy canes when mixed with various liquid reactions? 4th graders learned how to make a table to organize their predictions and actual outcomes.  We placed a candy cane in 3 variables, cold water, hot water, and vinegar. the inserted their prediction and saw recorded their outcomes.  Wow! The reactions were surprising!
