I think with all the happenings during Famous American Week I failed to remember to write about all the happenings in our classroom. Our classroom website which Mrs. Leinbach keeps updated so well relates many of the events of last week as well as pictures and videos. Also if you haven't seen the voice thread yet please take some time to visit and respond or comment to all of our Famous Americans!
Today finds us in much cooler temperatures and there seems to be tiredness all around...although I attribute much of it to the Carolina game! We've been looking at poetry this week and introducing some wonderful poems to the class. We are enjoying Shel Silverstein's Runny Babbit a collection of poems with mixed up letters that the children enjoy listening to and figuring out. I enjoy reading it to them as well. We also read Casey at the Bat, first published in 1888, but still popular with kids today. I checked out four books today from the library based on the poem that we'll look at more closely tomorrow.
In math today we created a bunny on a graph by plotting out specific coordinates. Children listened to directions and were amazed by the figure they created at the end.
At the moment Senora Morgan is introducing more Spanish vocabulary about spring and going to restaurants to eat different foods. This Thursday we'll be going to Clemmons for a field trip at Tanglewood where we'll be tracking some wildlife! Be sure to check out Recent Happenings to see photos that will be taken on our trip!

Just wanted to thank you and Mrs. Leinbach for a memorable day on Friday. It really was something to see the culmination of all the kids' (and yours, I'm sure) hard work. It was a great day that we'll never forget. Thanks for an incredible memory!
