Greetings families! Don't forget about our field trip to the pumpkin patch next Monday from 10:45-2:15. It's going to be so much fun! Also, next Friday the 28th, we will have our fall party. Please contact let me know if you would like to help plan and I can forward your information to the parents collecting the list.

Pi Day

Today kindergarten was able to experience our very first PI DAY!!!! Students try to memorize as many digits of PI as they can! Kindergarten got to see if first hand so they can practice for next year.

Then some of our awesome teachers got PI-ed in the face. We look forward to this day is every year on March 14th (3.14)!

Reader of the Day

Today we had a student bring a book from home and read it to the class.  Everyday, we will have a student read something that they read or something that they wrote themselves! Students are super excited.

School Spelling Bee

Good luck to all of our spellers today!  If you want to be in the Bee next year, start practicing now!!!!!

Writer's Workshop: Show What You Learned

Do we always use the same amount of force?

Visit from Mr. Mason and Kai

Today we had a visit from Mr. Mason and his pet snake! We learned a lot of facts about snakes. Here are some facts we learned:

Snakes are reptiles just like lizards. So they lay eggs just like other reptiles. Snakes eat things like mice and they need to eat them whole because they do not have teeth so they cannot chew. They do not see in color like we do, but they see with heat so they can hunt in the dark. Snakes are amazing animals!

Three snakes making a super ball python (do not worry- they won't eat each other!)

Visit from the Ballet

Today we saw how dancers can make different shapes with their bodies!
