Special Recess

Today we will have a special recess for those students that have done their best to: follow directions quickly, be an active listener, and to be nice to each other. Lots of us will have an extra recess today. Sadly, not everyone will get an extra recess today. Those students that were told several times to follow directions right away, to try to be a better listener, and to be nicer to others will not get the extra recess today. Hopefully, they will do their best for next week when we do this again for our students. I'm hoping that we have EVERYONE next week. Have a good weekend!!!

P.E.

The first thing we played was Catch the Leader. We played soccer today. Connor was the goalie on the team. Two people kicked the ball really high and accidentally hit the ceiling fan. We had a substitute. He told us to call him "coach." We did 4 count Murbies. Our class did crazy eights, push-ups, and stretches called hang stretch. We did some running. Our teams' names were one, two, and three.

Science in Mrs. D's Room

We are studying about our bones. We are learning about the royal food family. All of us listened to the teacher read us the story about the royal food family. There was a dragon with blue, red, purple, green, yellow, and brown on it. The dragon's name is Little D. We watched a movie about milk and foods that are made out of milk. In Mrs. D's room we read about food. Healthy food keeps our bones healthy.

A Long Weekend

Riker went to the YMCA and spent the night at a friend's house. Darien went to his dad's house. Abbie played with her presents from her brother's party. Emma went to grandma's house for two nights. Maura went to Des Moines to see Walking with the Dinosaurs. Destiny and Connor lost their teeth over the weekend. Noah stayed with his dad all weekend and went bowling. Sam went to Council Bluffs and he got a new football. Caleb went to his cousin's great grandmother's house. Alexis stayed up last night and watched tv. Colissa went to God Squad and tasted apple butter.

Friday

Today Riker received the white hat. He has been working very hard in math this week. He gets to wear it today and then take it home. Next week we will all be working on following directions and good listening. Those people that are good listeners and follow directions quickly will get to do something special. I'm hoping that it is everyone in our class!!!! Have a good weekend. We will not blog on Monday since there's no school for the students.

Apple Activities

We talked about apples today. We made a Johnny Appleseed hat. The hats look like pots. We kind of look funny in our Johnny Appleseed hats. We also did apple math problems. Also we did a Scholastic News on apples. We watched a movie about apples and how they get from the orchard to the store. We did a sequence page on apples. We had a good apple morning.
