Holiday Fun!Thanks so much to our room parents and all the volunteers who helped make for a wonderful holiday party!
                                                         Poinsettia PaintingsOur students worked very hard making poinsettia paintings for their parents. Over three days they drew, outlined, painted, framed and gift-wrapped their masterpieces.
                                 Heritage FairStudents worked very hard to learn about their heritage then create an informative poster to share. They combined social studies with technology, writing and research skills to complete this project. On the morning of December 8, we were very fortunate to have two guest speakers teach us about Polish holiday traditions and Chinese New Year. Thank you so much to Mackenzie's great, great aunt and Ben's mom! Our research project was capped off with a Family Potluck that was incredible. Thank you parents so much for taking the time to take part in this event. It was a truly memorable day!

                          Student Council Elections
I was so proud of our boys and girls who made posters and gave speeches to be our class representatives. This was an election that truly had no losers; everyone who ran was a winner just for trying! This year Avri and Leah will be representing our class at morning Council Meetings. Below are some pictures of our candidates with their posters and giving their speeches.
                          The Relatives Came Read Along~Sept. 15, 2017
Thank you so much to all of our relatives who came for our surprise event. It was a great day to enjoy a few good book and a few good treats with family and friends. The boys and girls used the Cynthia Rylant book, The Relatives Came, as mentor text for a personal narrative they wrote.                                 Writer's NotebooksThe kids had fun personalizing their writer's notebooks on September 14. Thanks so much to Mrs. Shaya and Mrs. Mikulan for covering them all with contact paper.
