Donations

Don't forget we are taking donations to purchase our Kentucky Studies Weekly for Social Studies this year.  These newspapers really allow us to learn a lot about Kentucky in a creative and interesting way.  Also, our classroom is in need of play ground equipment.  We had a few soccer balls donated, but we could use some kick balls, footballs, tennis balls, jump ropes, you name it. Thanks for all your help so far!!

Off to an Excellent Start!!

We have begun the 2014-2015 with a bang. Students have been learning classroom routines and expectations. We have been working hard to get our workshops started, applying for classroom jobs, and working together to develop our class promise. We have also started to learn what it means to be an inquiring scientists by trying different experiments. We made a Diet Coke explode with Mentos, figured out how to make an egg float, and made lava lamps using water, oil, food color, and Alkaseltzer!
