New Baby

Annabelle Grace has a new baby brother.  John Wyatt arrived on Sunday.  We were all very excited for her and the family.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a blast today making oreo turkeys.

I am thankful for all of these sweet scholars.

Prepositions

Yes, Kindergarten scholars are learning about prepositions, placement words.

We used a turkey and took pictures of him over, under, through, around, between etc.

Then we made a pic collage and wrote the words.

Look in their google drive account to see their final product.  

They did an amazing job.  

These are some very smart and creative scholars.

Weight

Today we used a balancing scale to explore weight.

Jarret Krosocka

Today we had an author come to speak to the scholars,

Jarret Krosoczka.

He talked to the scholars about writing and illustrating books.

Baking Pumpkin Pie

Today we baked pumpkin pie.

The scholars added all the ingredients and mixed.

Then we carried the pies to the cafeteria.

We had a photo bomb from two third grade teachers, 

Mrs. Burch and Mrs. New.

Yum, Yum! Time to eat our pumpkin pie.

Watch our Pumpkins Grow!!

We went outside today and watered our pumpkin plants.  

They are alive ....YEA!!!

I am trying not to get my hopes up.

But I hope we grow a pumpkin for real.  LOL.

Mrs. Martinez Comes

Mrs. Martinez came today to talk to us about Bullying.

It was a great lesson.

The scholars really enjoyed it.

Thank You, Mrs. Martinez.

Measurement

This week in math we worked on measurement.

First we made a pattern of our feet.

 Then we measured them using cubes.

Then we compared our length to a friends using 

the words shorter and longer.

We made a pic collage of our findings.  

See our google drive accounts.

Veteran's Day

Today was Veterans Day.

Here the students are dressed in their Red, White and Blue.

We had a Veteran's Day Program.

Kindergarten sang Wave the Flag.

Sink or Float

Today we did a science experiment.

We tried to decide if a pumpkin would sink or float.

Mrs. Valbuena our student teacher did this lesson with the scholars.

 First we passed the pumpkin around and decided if we 

thought the pumpkin would sink or float.

 Then we graphed our predictions.

 The pumpkin floated.

 The scholars were very excited.
