Where smiles happen every day!
January 30, 2016
Can you believe January has already flown by?
It's up to Punxsutawney Phil in PA to let us know whether this warm weather will be sticking around or whether we're looking at some major snow. Here's hoping he gets it right!
Read Aloud Schedule
During our second round of read alouds, we invite families to come in and share in the fun! If you have not had a chance to let me know which days of the week work best for you, or if there is a particular day/date that absolutely doesn't work...please take a moment to send me an email this week if possible. I am hoping to get the schedule ironed out this week. I appreciate you letting me know what works on your end. Thank you.

OWL Of the week
What do sea creatures use to call their friends? Their shell phones... OR Why did the cow eat a chocolate bar? So he could make chocolate milk!
The Owl is also responsible for conducting an estimation activity and letting the students know if their estimates are too high, too low or just right. We also share a letter sent in from home from a family member explaining why our Owl is so special. So sweet to see the children grin ear from ear as they listen to all the amazingly wonderful things shared about them. The week ends with a show and tell 20 questions game. Students try and figure out what the mystery show and tell item is by asking a series of yes and no questions. Overall, the Owl's week is jam packed full of fun! Every child will have a turn to be the OWL...it's just a matter of being patient.
