O.R.E.O. Day

We had lots of fun stacking Oreos today. Thanks so much to Mrs. Austin, Mrs. Brown, Mr. Buchen, Mrs. Mendenhall, and Ms. Jane Priest for helping us stack Oreos today. Thanks also to all of the families who sent Oreos to make the project possible. The highest stack was made by Armando with 20 Oreos. Alexis Mendenhall came in second with 19. and Lexi and Thomas tied for third with 18 each.

Fire Safety

Today we were visited by two of our local firemen. They talked to us about fire safety and brought two of their fire trucks to show us how they use them to help fight fires. They also showed us some of the equipment they use to help them fight fires. We also discussed fire safety in class and made a fire safety booklet. Then everyone wrote some fire safety rules that they remembered. We are working on making a fire dog to display our writing with. Ask your child how they can be safe if there is a fire.

Johnny Appleseed

In September we talked about Johnny Appleseed. We read some books about his life and watched a short video. Then we brainstormed some facts we had learned. In writing everyone wrote about some of the things they had learned about Johnny. We then made Johnny Appleseeds and put the writing on our art project. They look really nice in our hallway at school. Next time you are at school take a look and read our Johnny Appleseed facts.

Buster the Bus

Buster the Bus visited school today to teach us about bus safety. He was helped by some of our bus drivers. Thanks to Buster and the bus drivers for helping us learn to be safe!

Cat Puppets

We made cat puppets to use to read the poem Sandpaper Kisses in our reading book. We had lots of fun making them and having them recite the poem with.

Building Sentences

When we read the story Sam and the Bag, the class worked in groups to take words from a bag and build a sentence with them They were really fast building their sentences and did a great job reading them!
