Happy April everyone. I can't believe we are already into April and the third trimester. Even the kids are surprised at how the time flies. It looks kind of cloudy up here on the Mud Hill. Where is the warm weather?
A big thank you to everyone who pledged to the Book Fair and supported it by buying books. The kids were excited all week. We retain our first place for the ice cream party and 100 dollars in books for the classroom. Again, we are so filled with positive energy and school spirit. Thank you so much. We couldn't do it without you. This week in reading, we will be doing Wonders, unit 5-week 3. The story is Expository text and the new spelling words are listed on this site on the spelling page. The kids did a great job on their unit 6 math test and we are now on to unit 7. Fractions, order of operations, liquid measuring and multiplication. We love math and we are very good at it. The room is all decorated for Easter and the kids made bunnies to hang from the ceiling. We will be getting together with Mrs. McNish and class to make our Easter baskets. This has been a yearly tradition. Hopefully the Easter Bunny will be visiting the classroom. In science, we will be starting a unit on Forces. Lots of fun experiments go along with this unit. In social studies, we are working hard on the presidents. The kids are learning so much about the history of the United States. We have earned a free recess, due to good behavior in special classes and our own classroom. We are waiting for a real nice day. Our next reward will be a movie day after we earn our 75 gold coins. I continue to be amazed at what the kids are doing and how they have grown this year. The amount of books that we have been reading is really mind blowing. We have read a total of almost 900,000 words in the last month. Keep up the great work! Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone. have a great Sunday and a wonderful week ahead. Comments are closed.

I Believe...Let the kids be kids. Every child has a strength. It is up to the teacher to find it or tap it so they can work to their highest potential. I tend to set the bar very high. Lifetime memories should be made in the classroom and at school. NBCS should be a place where kids enter happy and go home with a smile on their face. I want my kids getting up in the morning begging to go to school! Archives
