Fire Safety

Thank you Mrs. Mueller for teaching us about fire safety! We learned what are the main things that cause fires and what to do if one happens. Mrs. Partyka was reminded to check her smoke detectors!

After reading The Fierce Yellow Pumpkin by Margaret Wise Brown, the students had to create a pumpkin with an adjective in mind. It was fun to see funny, aggressive, cranky, and pretty pumpkins. The designs were very creative and decorated our room for the holiday!

Mystery Reader

Thank you Mrs. Moyer for being our first mystery reader! We loved The Book With No Pictures! It was a fun visit!

Communities

We are learning about communities in class and the students are very good at telling you about an urban, suburban, or rural community. They created their own suburban community and had to decide what to include in it. Many wanted extra parks for kids to play and a school located near their houses.

Book Reccommendations

Can you convince someone to read a book? My students can! After reading Snake Camp by George Edward Stanley these students created a poster and gave a summary and book rating of the book. Many chose to read it!

Our first reading lesson was learning how to read with expression. We practiced using our voices when reading what the characters are saying. The Piggy and Elephant books by Mo Willems are great stories to practice expression. The students chose to be one of the characters and enjoyed acting our the stories.
