Party Time!

We had lots of fun at our Valentine's Party! Instead of cards, we made posters for our friends to sign. I was overwhelmed with the kind, thoughtful sentiments my kiddos wrote about their friends. I am so blessed with such a caring class!! Many thanks to the moms and dads who brought treats, drinks, and crafts to make this a special day for us!

We are busy, busy, busy today!! There's lots of love in our room today. We started our day with some Valentine Graphing, wrote about the people/things we love, made beautiful cards for mom and dad, and will wrap up with our party. Happy Valentine's Day to my amazing students and their wonderful parents!! Much love to you all!

Fairy Tale Projects

We have been working at warp speed to try to finish our fairy tale projects! All these days off have made our lives miserable when it comes to preparing for our Open House, and I truly appreciate the help and support you are giving your child at home. We have been organizing, writing, proof reading, and writing some more! Many students asked if they. Oils type their papers, and that is absolutely wonderful! I had hoped we could do that at school, but due to time constraints, it just didn't happen. So your child may type or write their final paper. Final copy of stories and projects are both due Monday!! Our concert is at 6:30 on Tuesday followed by Open House at the elementary school. All projects will be displayed in the cafeteria. I'm looking forward to seeing you then. Enjoy your cold, snowy weekend!!

It seems like forever since we've been in school on a Monday! We have lots of catching up to do. Counting money is our focus in math right now and we found some fun Smart Board activities to help us practice! We are also working hard on our Fairy Tale/Fractured Fairy Tale unit. Today we read The Princess and the Pea and The Princess and the Bowling Ball. Our rough drafts for our own tales are coming along slowly, but surely. I'm sure they'll be perfect in time for our concert and Open House next week. Remember, projects are due next Monday, February 10. Fingers crossed for a full week of school!
