Pizza Party

Pizza Party!!

11 kids from our classroom checked out and returned over 100 books this school year!  As promised at back-to-school night, those that read over 100 books were treated to a pizza party on Friday, May 11th.  Mrs. DeMey ordered pizza and soda from Domino's pizza!  They also enjoyed a frozen treat for dessert!  Great job kids!  I'm still totaling the number of books that our class read this year!  Look for that total soon!

Swan Lake Field Trip

We had a great trip to Swan Lake in Carroll on Friday.  The weather started out a little chilly, but when the fog lifted, the day was wonderful!  We started the day with a picnic at the nature center and then met the naturalist, Matt.  Matt took us for a little hike.  We were able to see a bluebird (Matt actually held on to it!) and bison and Kaiden even caught a snake (then Mrs. Hess held it so that everyone could touch it).  We also got to see geese, a tiny turtle, lots of plans and acorns and a creepy green bug!  A great day was had by all!














Conservation Poster Winners

Congratulations to Izzy, Caden V., and Sky Fikkers for their awesome posters for the BV County Soil and Water Conservation poster contest.




Making Pizza at the Newell Good Samaritan Center

We were invited to the Newell Good Samaritan Center to make pizza for the residents and play bingo.  We started the day by spreading the dough into the pans, then covering it with sauce.  Some groups added hamburger while others just piled the cheese on high!  We got to carry the pans to the kitchen where they put them in the over to cook while we played bingo.  After we made sure that everyone won at bingo, we sat down to eat with the residents.  There are several pictures of us eating with our newest friends!  We enjoyed our pizzas, some pop, and even ice cream!  We have enjoyed every visit we've gotten to make to the NGSC.  We are looking forward to one more visit before school gets out.
