Your Generosity

 This fall, parents, grandparents, neighbors and friends all came in support of the Early and Later Elementaries and test drove a Ford car as a fundraiser for our schools.  The BUGS of Room 18 are especially grateful, for not only did we get new book bins, a new paper organizer and some new books for our classroom, but we also got an iPad mini! 

The students use both of our classroom iPads during math stations right now.  They love exploring new math apps to practice addition and subtraction skills!

Thanks to all of you who supported our classroom this fall and especially to the Ford Motor Company and Tapper Ford for their generous donation to our classrooms and schools!

Sad, Sad Day

We were all pretty excited about two weeks off from school, and we enjoyed our last day together before break playing Around the World, Apples to Apples and a new game, appropriately named, "Sad, Sad Day." 

For while we were anxious for the holidays to come, for sleep-in days and reading in bed, we had to say goodbye to a dear classmate today and for that, our hearts were a little heavy. 

We are sad to say goodbye to Evan as he has been an incredible friend, student and child.  We are all better for having known him and we will miss him terribly!  We wish him all the blessings we can as he moves to Detroit and we hope the students in his new class love and adore him as much as we all do!

We all took turns sharing adjectives that best described Evan.  Beautiful words poured out of the kids, like, "funny," "hilarious," "great listener," "handsome" and "cool".  He took it all in, and we hope he holds that in his heart wherever he goes.

Giving

'Twas the day before break and all through the room,
The BUGS were busy - no time for gloom!
There were gifts to give out and hugs to deliver!
People to thank and praise to consider!

We handed out ornaments to teachers and staff,It put smiles on their faces, and sometimes a laugh!
We wanted to thank them for all that they do,
Cleaning and teaching and feeding us, too!

It's important to thank all the people you love,
To show you appreciate all their help and their love!
We wish you all Happy Holidays and very blessed New Year's!
Now off we go - to spread more holiday cheer!
