Our Guest Speaker Cherry Teeter As an extension activity after
reading our story "Rugby & Rosie"
from our Open Court unit on
friendship, our A track students
enjoyed listening to a very
special guest speaker from the
Guide Dogs of America in Sylmar,
CA. |
|
|
The Important Guide Dog Harness Mrs. Teeter explained how the
guide dog harness, a very
important piece of equipment, is
used by the guide dog's non-
sighted owner. |
Meet Laddie! Laddie was very well behaved, and
followed all of Mrs. Teeter's
instructions when given various
commands to perform. |
|
|
Laddie Greeting our Students Our students got a chance to ask
if they could pet Laddie at the
end of the presentation. We will
be working hard to collect
pennies for our Pennies for
Puppies Project. All of our
donations will go towards
purchasing supplies for the guide
dog puppies such as play toys and
grooming items. Mrs. Teeter will
be returning in the near future
to collect all of our A track
classes donations. |
Class Field Trip to Dodger Stadium The class took time out from
their tour of Dodger Stadium to
pose for a class picture. What a
special day for the third
graders! Fenton students were
the only kids there as all of the
district schools were on Spring
Break. |
|
|
Take Me Out to the Ballgame! On our April field trip, our
third grade classes got a
chance to see Dodger Stadium up
close up and personal. This was
a real treat for some of the
students, as this was their first
time visiting Dodger Stadium! |
The Great Jackie Robinson
Students were excited to see the
retired jersey of Jackie
Robinson, who when he played for
the Brooklyn Dodgers, was number
42. The class was quick to make
a real world connection to our
Open Court story "Teammates".
