Parents and Students,
Welcome! I'm so glad you found us on the web! Please check back often as we do so many exciting things in our classroom. This month we have: School Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 4th at 10:00 Class Easter Egg Hunt on Monday, April 13th PTO Meeting on Monday, April 13th at 7:00 Grandparent's Day on Wednesday, April 15th Donuts With Dad on Wednesday, April 22nd
This month we will be learning about life cycles in science. We will incubate and hatch chicks and butterflies! The kids just love doing this and it is so exciting. Please ask your child about it at home.
Don't forget to have your child complete one of the activities to the left and email it to me for a prize!
We have begun Bucketfilling in our classroom. There is a wonderful book titled Have You Filled A Bucket Today by Carol McCloud and Illustrated by David Messing. The book tells children about an invisible bucket that every person carries around with them all day, every day.The purpose of your bucket is to hold your good thoughts and feelings about yourself. You feel good when your bucket is full and sad when it is empty. The children learn that you can fill a bucket when you show love to someone, do something kind, or even when you smile. By doing these nice things for others, you are also filling your own bucket because you feel good when you help others feel good. The book also talks about Bucket Dippers who make others feel bad. We don't want to be Bucket Dippers! If you are looking for a great book to use at home or in the classroom, I can't say enough good things about this one!
We have begun our Flat Stanley Project '09! Our Flat Stanley's have gone out all over the world and we are anxiously awaiting the returns! Mine has already come back from his Disney Cruise to the Bahamas over Spring Break. Flat Stanley had a wonderful time meeting all of the Disney characters but his favorite was Captain Jack Sparrow. He got to swim with stingrays, go down the Mickey water slide, and do all sorts of cool things on the ship. We recieved a big surprise from a school in North Carolina! A first grader named Mackenzie sent us her Flat Stanley. We are showing him around our school and writing letters to him. Thanks Mackenzie! We are having a great time with our guest! READ!READ!READ!
A little about Mrs. Dennis: I am excited to be earning my Gifted and Talented license this year from Ball State University. I have a Master's degree in Mild/Moderate Disabilities so these classes will help me to see the other end of the learning spectrum. I earned my National Board Certification in Early/Middle Literacy:Reading and Language Arts in November 2007. WOOHOO!
