WELCOME 2017!
Welcome back to school for the second semester! We hope everyone had a wonderful break for the holidays with special times spent with family and friends. The children came back very excited to see their friends and to get back to work. We have begun handwriting on 1st grade paper and the children are doing well so far. We have so many things to do and learn in the next few months.
Last Friday, we had a visit from Snowbird and held our annual Penguin Olympic games. This was a great way to end our study on Penguins. We always enjoy seeing Snowbird and the children had a great time at the Penguin Olympics. See the pictures below.
Next week, we will be learning about hibernation and other ways that animals adapt during winter. We will conclude our study with a Teddy Bear Picnic next Monday, January 23rd. More details to come soon.
Our 100th Day of School Celebration will be coming up on Thursday, January 26th, if we do not get out any more days for snow. We will be sending home a piece of poster board on Tuesday for your child to count 100 things and glue them to the poster, to display on the 100th day of school. More information about this will be coming home on Tuesday.
Next week, we will be dressing up to help the high school celebrate Coming Home, which is like Homecoming during the football season.
Tuesday-pajama day
Wednesday-twin day or dress like your teacher
Thursday- favorite storybook character
Friday-red and white day
Blessings,
Mrs. Gee and Mrs. Woody
