Reading to Become an Expert Presentations

In our last reading unit the students picked a few topics that they were interested in learning more about.  We made groups based on similar topics and the groups researched information in a variety of ways.  Then they created a presentation to share with the class.  Below are some pictures of each presentation.  

An Amazing Teacher Appreciation Week

I just want to say THANK YOU!  This week, Teacher Appreciation Week, has been perfect.  I can't thank each and every one of you enough.  I have felt so appreciated, special and loved!  A big thank you goes out to our room moms, Mrs. Nickel and Mrs Bricker for organizing everything - thank you! Also, thank you to all of the other parents who organized this weeks gifts and events - I know work is done behind the scenes and I truly appreciate it.  I thought I would attach some pictures that I took each day of the goodies I received.  Thanks again and here is to a fabulous last week and a half!

Delicious hot chocolate and cookies!

Theme of the day was Coca-Cola 

The kids all wrote awesome notes to me and made me smile!

Love my new monogram cup with candies and Chic-fil-a gift card!

Ice cream party day!

Goodies for my desk and a gift card that I can use to purchase a Zoo Membership!

Thank you Thank you!

Our Trip to Weldon Springs

We had a great time today!  The kids participated in 2 classes.  One class was on states of matter and the other on butterflies.  Then we walked to the top of the Cell Disposal!  Everyone had a great time and it was a beautiful day!
