One of our reading stations (for almost every student) is Reader's Theater.  This reading station lets us work together in a group (a great life skill) on our reading fluency! Our reading standards push us to read with good fluency (speed) and expression, specifically using different voices for different characters and Reader's Theater certainly helps us with that! While we don't "act" out the plays, we do take time to read them to...

The firemen showed us some of their equipment and let us see, touch and hear what they sounded and looked like.  We won't...

Today we spent time exploring two different tools for measurement.  We wanted to know when would it be best to use a centimeter ruler... ...and when would it be best to use a meter stick. We loved measuring objects around our classroom! We also loved learning why they are called "CENTimeters!!"  (Who knew Latin could be so cool!...

What a beautiful day for the Prowl fundraiser! The kids were super excited to run, walk and laugh as they earned money for our school! The PTO volunteers sure did an amazing job!  They kept us hydrated and jamming to tunes as we went around the track! We collected bands for each lap we made so we knew how much money to collect from our sponsors! Thank you to everyone who supported our school through this even...
