We had a busy week which began with another Monday storm, this one with rain causing localized flooding and navigating challenging road conditions, Unfortunately, we lost most of the snow that had fallen the previous three weeks.
Despite these unfavorable conditions, school remained open and parents were able to get students to school! The last few secret pal projects were completed, our penny challenge concluded and students totaled their collection. In total they raised $197.40 for NCAL! Our field trip to NCAL was postponed until a later date.
Students count the funds they collected for our NCAL fundraiser. |
During Literacy this week students wrote in their journals, worked on literacy centers, completed Lexia lessons and practice pages, and spent time silent reading. On Wednesday, Mr. Heraty stopped by to read a couple of stories to the class!
During Math, students participated in daily illustrative math lessons, completed Dream box lessons and used math centers to practice their math skills!
On Friday our week culminated our week with a reading of the Polar Express. Later students were treated to a movie and popcorn where they watched the movie, The Polar Express. We went caroling to the Elmore Store and enjoyed a Pizza party for lunch! We concluded our day with our Secret Pal gift exchange. (see photos below)
I'd like to extend my gratitude to you all. Your support and appreciation are generous and heartfelt. I feel blessed to have you all in my life, and everyday I feel lucky to come to work where I get to be your child's teacher.
I wish you all a happy holiday season filled with peace, love, and joy!
Warmly,
Diane Nicholls
