Setting The Trap

With tomorrow being St. Patrick's Day, everyone wanted to make traps to catch a Leprechaun. We also had a great time writing about it. The kids said it was the best way to wrote. Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.

Picture Day & STAR Reading

Had our group picture taken today and then portraits.

We will send the picture packets home in a few weeks for you to decide if you would like to purchase them. If not, just return the pictures.

The class photo is FREE!

My favorite part of picture taking is watching the kids in the mirrors.

CU was one of the many students that won a book at STAR reading today.

Thank you Parent's Club for your help supplying books.

Mrs. Miltenberger runs Bingo for us to win a book as a reward for meeting our reading goals.

Art & Bookmarks

We are in the process of making another poster.

This time we are filling our paper with flowers using tissue paper.

They are going to be bright and colorful. Maybe Spring will decide to come back.

We created bookmarks for the bookmark contest today in Library.

Wonderful Wednesday

A big shout out to CC and his mom for supplying us with the Monkey Moment treats.

We all loved the Snicker doodle cookies, thank you.

GP got glasses! Oh so cute.

Today was our day to partner read.

I love to walk around and listen to each pair work so well together.

They are so engaged in the story that they don't even notice me taking pictures.

Parents Club is running the snack food sale this week. They are asking parents of second graders to supply treats this time. Please send individually wrapped snacks to school by Friday morning. Thank you!

Next round of OAKS testing will begin next week. Reading first and the following week will be math. Please make sure your child has a good breakfast and is well rested.
