The Challenge!

Larz was pretty proud that he could read "competition" in his library book this morning.  Cheyenne thought that was pretty impressive, too, but she was certain he couldn't stump her on a word.  He took his book and searched for another hard word and brought it back for Cheyenne to decode.  She asked for paper and pencil and set to her fish hooking.  After breaking the word into syllables, and remembing that "-sion" is an ending like "-tion", she was able to decode "suspension", sending Larz off to find another hard word to stump her!

A Special Visitor

On Friday, Jacob (Miss Wilson's high school son) came to visit our classroom (he didn't have school).  Some of the BUGS remembered Jacob from last year and greeted him with big hugs. 

Others met him for the first time and quickly realized - Jacob is quite huggable!!  Jacob was a big help getting some materials printed off for assessments, but he took time out to play with the kids, too.  He taught us how to play "Sad, Sad Day!"   MMMMMmmmm Hmmmmm!!
