I can't believe we have only 4 weeks of school left.  

These last 4 weeks will be filled with continued learning and 

I encourage you and your child to finish strong!

This class has been such a blessing. 

I look forward to coming to work with them everyday.  

                    What a joy and privilege it has been to be their teacher!

May 6 is Nurse's Day.  I would love to shower our Nurses with cards.  Our nurses are Connie Tan and Ruth Goetz.  If you send in a note for them I will make sure they get it.  Let's show our appreciation for our awesome nurses this year!

My oldest daughter graduates with her doctorate in Physical Therapy next weekend.  I will not be at school on Friday to attend her doctoral hooding ceremony on Friday.   Mrs. Glover will be my sub!

She is a retired Zion teacher and I know it will be a great day!

Have a wonderful weekend,

Our book theme this week was Standing Up for Yourself.

We observed popcorn to learn adjectives.  We described the popcorn!

We acted out our book for the week, a European Folktale, The Gingerbread Girl.

We had some fun in guided reading this week.

We are learning different ways to find the sum of 3 digits.

We LOVE the dwarf planets.

A favorite song is the Dwarf Planets, by Hopscotch.
