Pumpkin Patch Day!

We had a great time outside this morning at the Pumpkin Patch. Students got to pick their own pumpkin and weight it for our investigations on Monday. We also got tattoos, ate cookies and drank lemonade, and listen to a story read to us by Granny Sue! I hope you enjoy our pictures below!

Busy October Week!

We had a very busy week last week including a field trip to the Pelican's Nest to see Mrs. Hardman and Mobile Bay then our Fun Run on Friday to raise money for a new basketball court and shade trees for the playground. Here are some photos from both of those events!

The Lion King Jr.

We enjoyed supporting local students in the play The Lion King Jr. We even participated in making the set during art class and made our own collars to wear to the show!

Pelican's Nest

We have arrived!

On Friday we took flight to Australia after a lot of hard work researching and constructing. Our friends did an awesome job packing their suitcases and building the airport security. They even enjoyed and in flight movie and snack passed out by Miss Stoddard's flight attendants. We will now be discussing the different land regions and voting on the order in which to visit them. Once there we will learn about the animals that live there and construct life size versions of them. I hope you enjoy our pictures and your children shared with you all about it!

More visits from Snowflake!

Snowflake has been visiting our room since last week and during lunch she likes to create lots of messes as well as leave us some sweet treats. She has brought us snowflake ornaments, candy, rice crispy treats, and word search books, and even Reindeer cupcakes today because she knew that's what we were studying! Snowflake has also added some great Christmas decor to our room. I wonder what else she will be doing this week...

Snowflake!

An elf has appeared in our classroom this week to monitor children's behavior and report back to Santa. So far the elf, we have named Snowflake, has brought us treats and gifts as well as decorated our classroom! On Monday Snowflake wrapped our door while we were at lunch so we couldn't get back into our classroom. She also decorated our rainforest tree where the snake lives and sat herself there for the day while leaving friends a candy cane treat. On Tuesday, Snowflake brought a light up candy cane to sit on to watch us and brought each student a notepad, pen, and candy cane. She also acted mischievous again by covering our reading table in "snow"! Check out the pictures below.

Mystery Reader Fun!

We have so enjoyed having mystery readers this fall and can't wait to have more in the new year! Here are pictures from the latest readers.
