Tibits from this week.....

This week we had “P day”.  We got to write with pens all day long on paper.

We also got to build with legos in math.  We used our Legos to help us put numbers in order from 1-20 and then identify numbers out of order from 1-20.  What fun!



Perferct Attendance!!!!

Wow!  Check out who had perfect attendance for the first 9 weeks! 

Way to go Lindsey, Camden, Jack, Hernan and Makiya!

A few Literacy stations....children @ work!

Making reading fun!

Fabulous 50!

Happy 50^th Day of School!

We celebrated in style....or at least 50's style.  We practiced our dance moves including the sprinkler.  We looked at pictures showing us how technology and style has changed over the years.  We counted to 50 by using groups of 10.  We also got to chew gum and enjoy root beer floats.  Here are some pictures of all our fun!
