Play on Words

I love words that make me think and laugh...this game does both! Cinnamon toast is my favorite morning treat so I really got a kick out of this game. I hope you like it.

Reading Monday

It's MONDAY!

What are we reading this fine Monday?

We are reading our own works of literature! We created stories about our best day ever and shared them around the campfire with hot chocolate.

The students had great stories to tell and enjoyed reading them out loud. We even had a surprise visitor! Mr. Staheli (principal) and Mrs. McBride (Curriculum Coordinator). We also played telephone around the campfire using our new vocabulary words.
