Title 1 Goal Getters

Students in Mrs. Brauner's class and Mrs. Dicus' class met their Reading Counts goals three weeks sooner than their goal date!  Woo Hoo!   Not to worry, though, there is still plenty of time to make your goal!

Each of these students have met their personal goals in terms of points and percentage correct.  Congratulations to each of you!

Second (Grade) City

The students in Mrs. Billings' class created a city from various materials when they studied communities in social studies.  The students informed me that they collected milk cartons from their lunches and collected other "goodies" to help them build the city.

The students were able to explain each part of the community and what each role was. I was grateful to see that there was a school in their town!

Awww!

Students from Mrs. Dusenberg's class discovered this heart shaped snow mound and asked me to take a photo of it...


Reader's Theater

Mrs. Williams' class performed the story Flossie and the Fox for each of the fifth grade classes and a guest:  ME!  The students practiced reading fluency and their interpretation of the text.  Their goal is to be able to compare and contrast this story to Little Red Riding Hood.

The students did a great job on their skit!

Fifth Grade Revolutionary War Parade!

The Fifth Grade finalized their studies of the American Revolution with a talk by "Thomas Jefferson" and a parade through the school.  Students studied different people, created costumes and took on the persona of individuals connected with the War.  Enjoy these photos of the event!
