We
started the month of May with our open house on May 2nd. We had a wonderful turnout with most students
bringing their whole family. The rooms
were filled with projects and writing with ocean themes, author studies, and
spring themes.
We
had our field trips to Storyland on May 16th and 17th. The students had been learning stories and
poems and were delighted to recognize the exhibits. The Little
Old Lady Who Lived in a Shoe and King
Arthur’s Castle were favorites. We
also heard an updated version of The
Three Little Pigs from Mother Goose herself!
On
the 30th we had our field day with stations set up around the
school. With tug-o-war, relay races,
basketball and more, we got lots of exercise as we had fun.
We
are looking forward to a music assembly hosted by our own Rafer Johnson Band
next week. It’s great to see the
students excited about what instruments they might like to play in the future.
Overall, it’s been another great year with our fantastic first graders!
