Scarecrow Glyphs

Our hallway bulletin board looks festive for Fall with our cute scarecrow glyphs!

Deliciously Creepy Oreo Spiders!

We had a deliciously creepy science lesson on the body parts of a spider as we built our own spider using Oreos, string licorice, sunflower seeds, Chinese noodles and candy sprinkles!

Halloween Party Pictures

The Halloween party was a hoot! Here are some cute pictures of our little ones in costumes and the party festivities! We decorated treat bags, passed out party treats, ate cinnamon sugar donuts and drank cider, paraded through the building and played pass the pumpkin! It was hard to get a clear photo with everyone moving about! :)

Fluency Practice at Home

I found a fantastic website for all sorts of ideas and links to great sites for printables to work with your child at home on reading fluency! I am using some of these activities in the classroom as well!

Reading fluency is a focus of reading instruction in second grade. Any practice done with your child at home can be recorded as 20 minutes of homework on the reading log! Just write the name of the passage or website used for practice! :)

Fun Run!

We had a great time while helping to raise money for PTO sponsored events and grade level funds! Thanks to all of the families who contributed pledge money. Here are a few photos of our Walk for Funds. It was a little difficult to get good photos on the track. I had a hard time keeping up! :)
