Easter Party

Our 1st grade Easter Party was such a success! The kids had so much fun playing at Exerfit. It was a great was to celebrate the Easter season. A big thanks to all the parents that made it possible! I hope everyone has a safe and Happy Easter!

Butterflies!

Our 3rd grade partner class has played host to 5 caterpillars for the past few weeks. After hatching from their cocoons, we were able to watch the butterflies be released in nature. It was a exciting moment for the kids to see!

Dr. Seuss Week

In honor of the wonderful author, Dr. Seuss, PBS dedicated an entire week to celebrating many of his books. With Green Eggs and Clothes Day, Fox in Socks, Cat in the Hat, and I Can Read with my Eyes Shut day, we had plenty of fun during the week! We also had a special visit from Dr. Mayes who read Yurtle the Turtle to the class. It is always fun to dress up at school and here are a few pics from throughout the week.

Human Body Unit

In preparation for our field trip on Tuesday, we did a fun lesson on the human body. The kids learned about some of the organs that keep our bodies functioning everyday. They really enjoyed this unit and are excited to see Bodyology The Musical this week!

Love of Literature/Valentine's Day

Today was a day full of excitement! After we finished all of our tests, we began our love of literature activities. Our class rotated to each of the the 1st grade classrooms to do fun valentine's activities. Once the rotations were over, w began our party! The kids loved giving out their special gifts to all of their classmates. Here is a precious picture to help you enjoy your Valentine's weekend!

100th Day of School

We have officially been in first grade for 100 days! To celebrate, we spent a whole day devoted to learning about different ways to make 100. We created 100th day Chex Mix, counted 100 footsteps, and made tally mark headbands. We also had a balloon launch from the football field. The kids hope to have some returned to see how far the balloons traveled.
