We had our 100th day of school and it was a spectacular day! Each student had an assignment to make a project using 100 items. I am so impressed at all the hard work and effort put into these projects. They are absolutely AMAZING! We also made some fun crowns to wear. They said, "We are 100 days Smarter" and had 10 peices of paper with 10 shapes drawn on each one. That made 100 shapes on our hats! Check out our fun filled day below!

Valentine's Day Projects

The month of February has been full of projects. We did a valentine person for our bulletin board, made our valentine boxes, created valentines for our classsmates, and gave a heart valentine to our monkeys. You all did an amazing job! I am so proud of all your hard work.

Valentine Boxes







Each student had a homework assignment to write one nice thing about each student in the class. We compiled all the data and made these on www.wordle.net. Then, each student colored one for another student. They turned out really neat!

I Love to Read!

WOW! We have really kicked off this month with dad's reading in our classroom. Valerie's dad Randy came on Monday, Llayson's Dad Jayson came on Tuesday and Jeri's Grandpa Jerry came in today. Randy read us the book Be my Valentine Charlie Brown, Jayson read us the books The Cow that Laid an Egg and Johnny Appleseed, and Jerry read us the books The Little Red Hen and Grizzwold. It was three incredible days and we all can't wait to see who comes next!

Work really hard to get your dad, uncle, grandpa, or brother in to read to us!





The Lions Club of Newfolden came to our classroom yesterday. They brought each student a Magic Tree House book. A huge THANK YOU goes out to the Lions Club of Newfolden!
