WELCOME BACK TO SCHOOL

What a wonderful beginning to the school year it has been!!! I always enjoy the beginning of the school year, meeting new students, getting new supplies, starting a new schedule! The students have been learning the beginning letters sounds that are needed for reading, and read several short a words this week. We are playing many letter games to reinforce the upper and lower case letters and sounds! In science, we are learning about animals and how they grow and change. Mrs. Gadwell teaches math, and the students have been making patterns and reviewing the numbers 1-10. Mrs. Gadwell also teaches social studies. Last week the students learned about "Constitution Day" and did many activities having to do with the United States of America!
