A New Year!

We came back to school to enjoy a movie in Pocahontas.  We got to see Wreck-It, Ralph.  Fun was had by all! 

We have also started working on shapes.  We are discussing 2-D closed shapes and their attributes.  We will begin working with 3--D shapes next week.

We also made some beautiful snowflakes to take to the Newell Good Samaritan Center for our visit.  We went to the Center on Friday, January 11th to play a game of bowling.  As usual, a good time was had by all!

We are looking forward to having Megan Christiansen in our classroom next week as part of her January term class.  Megan is interested in elementary education, so she is going to spend the week learning the ins and outs of a first grade classroom.

Christmas Party

A peek back before Christmas......  We were supposed to go to a movie in Pocahontas to see Wreck-It Ralph on Thursday, December 20th, but didn't get to go because of the blizzard warning - so we got to go on our first day back in January!   We returned to school on Friday, December 21st to enjoy a fun-filled day!  After lunch, we got to have a class party.  Many thanks to Jami, Violet, and Charlotte for planning a class party complete with snacks, cutting snowflakes and covering them with glitter, and a game of cards in the basket.  We also got to open our Christmas presents that have been causing all kids of anticipation under the Christmas tree.

Jami got stuck to the glue!
