Happy Thanksgiving!

From All My Little Turkeys!

Be a Leader!

Have you heard any talk of being a leader this year? I hope so!

One of my goals this school year was to implement The 7 Habits of Happy Kids. I am so proud of my class and of the leaders we are growing.

 In class we are trying to be proactive or responsible for our own actions, attitudes and moods. In addition, we are learning to have a plan and set goals. Most recently, we learned the value of putting first things first. These habits are valuable life skills that you can use at home to make your family function more efficiently, too!

Keep checking in because there is a lot more leadership to come!

Follow the Yellow Brick Road!?

We are all familiar with the classic movie, The Wizard of Oz. Last week we borrowed one of the wizard's tricks to teach how to retell a story! After a read aloud, students traveled the yellow brick road as they told the characters, setting, problem, solution and sequenced the major events.

Halloween Haunts!

Our first class party was a huge success. We had delicious food, exciting games, a fun craft and wonderful volunteers!  Click the link to enjoy the fun: Halloween Haunts!

Pumpkinology!

Last week our 5th grade buddies helped us explore pumpkins.  With their help we were able to learn more about many of our math and science standards.
