Happy May Day!

Reward Party

Such an amazing display of character! The third graders earned a reward party for filling our cube jar and they chose unanimously to celebrate their friends with summer birthdays, who don't normally have an opportunity to celebrate at school! Completely their awesome idea! They planned treats and traditional party games; musical chairs, pin the tail on the donkey, and a piñata! I decided to put a little twist on an old classic... We played pin the mustache on a friend! Boy did we giggle! It was a great party third grade.... May you always be this caring for one another!

Have courage and be kind!

Third grade took a field trip on Friday to see Cinderella at the movie theater. Along with our popcorn, we enjoyed the opportunity to see literary elements in traditional literature come to life on the big screen. What I hope my students took away from the movie, above all, was the amazing message... Have courage and be kind!

Career Day 2015

We had a great day celebrating Career Day! Speakers included a professional musician, orthodontist, meteorologist, Cardinal manager of ticket sales, Panera Bread manager, and many more!

Happy Earth Day

Mosaics 2nd and 3rd graders decorated earth day globes! Students drew on one side an earth that was well taken care of and the other side was of an earth that wasn't taken care of. We will finish up our project tomorrow!
