This Week in Our Class...

First of all, let me say... HAPPY TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK! I am so thankful for the wonderful friends I work with and I want to wish them the best this week~ I have some of the sweetest kids! Some of them brought me gifts for this week AND I have GREAT parents that help and make our classroom a wonderful place:) I have a parent who is going to give me one of the greatest gifts a teacher could ever ask for... DUTY-FREE lunch!! She is going to take my kiddos to lunch so I can eat in my quiet room!
Here are some of the gifts my students got me...

This week we are continuing to combine two stories and the skills that go with them:) We are reading Alexander Graham Bell and Ben Franklin and His First Kite. We are finishing up Chapter 12 in Math and taking our End of the Year Math Test (Wow!!! The end of the year is approaching fast!!) We have some changes to pay attention to... May 16 is now our Field Day. We will NOT have snowcones :( This makes me very sad... but hopefully we will some other cool treat for the kiddos! May 23 is our End of they Year Party! The time has changed to 9:30:)

We have been busy getting ready for Summer! We made a SUPER cute sunshine craft:) The students did a great job and had a blast cutting and tracing and gluing!

We have also been busy creating a Mother's Day card since Mother's Day is Sunday. Here are my students working hard! We are working on an idea I took from Pinterest:)

This Week In our Class...

We have had a busy week! We have been DIBELed, read 2 stories, learned 4 new reading skills, AND added some fun behavior activities into our afternoon schedule!!! The students have had the best time this week! Our balloons have had us take a nature walk, get an extra free play, get M & Ms throughout the day, a Day without Homework, AND to top it off on Friday, we get to have a READ-A-THON!!! The kids are so excited. They are allowed to bring a towel and a small stuffed animal. After lunch, we will lay around the room and READ,READ,READ:) When we popped this balloon, the students were so happy. It really melts my heart that these kids have such a great love of Reading!
