A fun and busy week celebrating Dr. Seuss! Dr. Seuss wrote such perfect books for first graders. Some of them are just right for us to read and others have a wonderful story and lesson. We were read to, read to each other, and of course had to make a batch of Oobleck!
Dr. Seuss week is one of our favorites!! Thank you to ALL our guest readers that shared the fun of reading with preschool (Mrs. Hoover, Mr. Smith, Ms. O'Dea, Mr. Funke, Mrs. Gano and Harley, Mrs. Stevenson, Mrs. Craig, Heather, Becky, Kelly, Ramona, Brenda, Ruth Ann, Amy, Carol, Kendal, Lillee and Chyna!)
Trying out something new today! #seniortrip #betigerstrong
The 5th grade ELA students just finished “The Adventures of Don Quixote.” Today they took an oath and were dubbed knights. Then, they had to make a trip to save Princess Heather in the office.
Here is my license plate!!!
Today is a good day.
Ben Tegtmeier came in to talk
about his Kansas licence plate experience and about graphic design with our 6th graders. I so appreciate his time and willingness to talk to our Tigers. He did a great job and I believe that some of the 6th graders will pursue graphic design because of Ben's love and passion for his profession. Thanks again Ben, you gave kids dreams to catch today!
