Special Person's Day

Shortly after Special Person's Day, my camera went on a great vacation! It went with my sister and her husband on their honeymoon to Jamaica! When they returned it, they forgot to return the charger for the battery. So the camera has been dead for a long time... until I received it yesterday! So here are some old pictures that will bring back some GREAT memories in the classroom!

Reading Celebration

We have learned all of our reading strategies! We have worked so hard and become great readers. We celebrated how far we have come last week with the kindergarteners. We read our just right books to them to show how hard we've worked and how far we've come! Thanks to Ms. Gabos's class for coming down!

Fall Party

If you weren't there, check out all the great things we did!

We are Bucket Fillers!!

Mrs. Reed (our counselor) came in a did a lesson that really stuck. We learned how everyone has a "bucket" that needs to be filled each day. We can fill others' buckets by being kind, polite and friendly. When we do that, it fill our own bucket too! If we are negative, we dip into other buckets. When we do that we dip into our own buckets, and everyone is down.

This class really loved the lesson! We commited to be BUCKET FILLERS!

Activity of the Week-Blend Lilypads

We had so much fun hopping around in our socks! We used lilypads to make words that begin with blends. The kids had to jump from lilypad to lilypad, saying each sound and spell a word at the end. It was fun to cheer on our friends!

Our Applesauce!

The last week in September was all about APPLES! We sorted apples, we graphed apples, we sang about apples, we read poems about apples, we measured apples, we floated apples, we drew apples and, of course,

WE ATE APPLES!

We recorded our applesauce recipe for our September memory book page. We will make a page each month and get it at the end of the year to remember all the fun things in first grade.
