News You Can Use!

Hello 1-1! 
I hope that you are enjoying this beautiful weekend! Here are some highlights from our last two weeks!

Halloween Fun!
The children had a wonderful fun filled Halloween afternoon on Monday! The children kicked off the Halloween festivities with a parade around the Dryden neighborhood. Thank you to everyone for coming out! After the parade and a short recess, we headed back to our classroom for our Halloween party. The children enjoyed rotating through 4 stations: Making Ghosts, Pumpkin Bean Bag Toss, Roll a Pumpkin, and listening to Halloween Stories. Thank you to everyone who sent in supplies for our party: crafts, prizes, and games. A very big thank you to our four party volunteers, Mrs. Stowe, Mrs. Robinson, Mrs. Wilt, and Mrs. Wilkin. Thank you for your incredible job planning and running our party. The children had a great time!




Super Sentence Heroes
On Friday, the children turned into super sentence heroes! Each child created their own super sentence hero mask. Using their graphic organizers from earlier in the week, they chose one telling, asking, and exciting sentence to glue onto their mask. The children had a lot of fun with this activity and enjoyed sharing their sentences with one another. 










Get Buggy Field Trip
On Friday afternoon, a scientist from High Touch High Tech came into our classroom and taught us all about bugs. We learned about the creepy, crawly, weird, wacky, incredible life of insects and arachnids. The children learned about the life cycle of butterflies, bees and beetles. They got to see through the eyes of bugs, make their very own insect habitat, and were excited when they got to touch real bugs!


First Grade Musical
The children did a great job on their first grade musical. I am so proud of how hard they worked! They were so excited to share it with all of you on Thursday night. Thank you for attending the performance and watching your stars shine! Enjoy the photos below.










Star Students
Thank you to our past two star students, Maddie and Wesley. We enjoyed learning more about each of you!

Royal Readers
A special thank you to Maddie’s family and Wesley’s mom who joined us the last two weeks as our Royal Readers. The children loved listening to the stories that you all read.
