WRITING TO 1,000

As students finish their 1,000 book we gather around them and cheer them on!!  Here Tanner is finishing his!  We have 11 students who have finished their book in our classroom.  We can hardly wait for all to finish!

EARTH DAY 2016


We wrote a story as though they were Earth and asked others to take care of them.  Students came up with really great ideas!  They know to take short showers, turn off lights when they leave a room, pick up litter, recycle, and reuse items that they can.  This is a few examples of our writing project.

Reader's Theater

On Friday, April 8 we acted out the story from our reading book, DO YOU LIVE IN A NEST?  It was a story about a bird that was coming to visit.  The characters were:  cricket, frog, turtle, dog, horse, lion, and bird.  All the animals worked together to make a nest for bird to stay in while bird was visiting.  The students did a very good job acting out the play!

Read and Romp!!

On Wednesday, April 6 we had our annual Read and Romp.  It was based around Aesop's Fables this year.  We would like to thank all the parents who volunteered to help with this.  It is always a very special day to the students.
