January, 2020 Leadership Day! Last Friday, we had Kenna Gallagher (Jack's big sister) come to our classroom for her fifth grade leadership experience! All the fifth graders volunteered to help out an adult in the school for one hour. Kenna became our teacher and helped us to make a fun winter project! She explained all of the directions, gave us our materials and helped us with any questions that we had. We had such a great morning with her!
December, 2019 We had a great time with our 7th grade friends from St. Timothy's Middle School who visited us the morning after our Christmas pageant! We made paper plate snowmen together, sang some Christmas songs to them with Fr. David, read books in the library, played games/legos together and had fun in the gym with our parachute! It was a great morning!
December, 2019 We are worm farmers! As a part of our life science unit, Mrs. Roy has gotten us a worm farm! We learned all about earthworms and how they help our environment. We learned about their habitat and what they need to be healthy and happy. We need to keep our worms in a dark, moist environment. We will feed them scrap fruit and vegetables that we will collect from our lunches each week. We will use the healthy soil that they produce in our school garden next spring!
Thank You!!
Thank you so much for all of the books that you donated to our classroom library!! We have enjoyed reading them all!!

September, 2019
This month, we had monarch caterpillars eating milkweed in our classroom! They grew into big, fat caterpillars! We read many books about caterpillars and loved watching them grow! Each caterpillar formed a chrysalis and we were able to hatch 3 monarch butterflies. We kept them in our classroom for a few days and then we let them go free during our science class with Mrs. Roy! We loved watching them fly away. We hope that they make it safely to Mexico for the winter!
Thursday, August 29th Today we explored with our math materials and we practiced making observations like scientists during our lesson with Mrs. Roy!
