What An Awesome Day!

What a great day. Awards Day is one of my favorite. It is so rewarding to see students get awards for their hard work, leadership, and kindness.

Congratulations to our 2 top citizenship recipients. They are Hayden & Reagan. Great job and very well deserving.

Good job to the honor choir recipients: Trisha, Hope, Raegan, Marquise, and Colton.

BUG Club award winners are: Jarret, Layne, Hayden, Tony, Raegan, Morgan, Trisha, Zach, Eli, Isabella, and Madisson.

Permission slips went home today for our end of the year activity on Friday. See note for information. Please return them tomorrow or no later than Thursday.

States & capitals test is tomorrow. It is a matching so shouldn't be too difficult if they just study a bit more tonight.

Wiffle ball games started today. The students are doing a great job having fun and displaying good sportsmanship.

Have a great night and enjoy the sunshine!!!!

Field Day Friday

Mr. Ness will be having field day on Friday from 1-3 with the intermediate kids. Let's hope the weather cooperates and we don't have to get as wet as yesterday. Speaking of yesterday, I did post a couple of pictures below. Students are writing about all the things they have learned from Jeff as our final writing assessment of the year that will go in their file. Boy, I am loving reading the completed ones and have they learned a lot or what. Cool-we are so excited and lucky to have him as the interim direction of Zoo Montana. :) If your child can tell you 3/12 facts that they put down in their writing put key words in the planner for free money.

Speaking of money, students will be participating in wiffle ball games next week against the other intermediate classrooms. They have to buy in to each one for $50. Extra money will be spent on an end of the year activity yet to be determined depending on the weather.

Have a great night.

DRENCHED!!!

Wow-we are soaked to the bone!! I think everyone needs a hot, hot shower and dry clothes. But, I can honestly say we all were "troopers" throughout the whole day. We had a great time and learned lots even though the weather didn't cooperate too well. Ask your child their favorite part for free money at check in.

I will post pictures tomorrow.

Have a great night.

Field Trip Tomorrow-Rain or Shine

Yes, we are going to Red Lodge tomorrow for the field trip. We checked it out with Jeff today and no need to worry about flooding. We will be starting the day at the home of the future, new nature center property and then drive into Red Lodge to the actual nature center. Kids are encouraged to dress in layers and dress for rain. Bring raincoats, umbrellas, etc.

Also, they may bring their electronics for the bus ride. Don't forget your LUNCH!!

Jarret was the lucky winning in the drawing to go into the Bobcat cage. Yes, he brought only one, single ticket, while others bought 12-15. Crazy how that works.

Have a great night and let's hope we wake up to sunshine tomorrow.

Super Hero Day

We had quite the look in our room today for Super Hero Day. We definitely know who was the scariest of all!!

Just a reminder that Monday is our test over the MT Reservations (8) and the tribes associated with them. It is a matching test so not real difficult if you put a little effort into it. Students were encouraged to take the map with tribes & reservations and the cards they made to use as study guides.

Have a great weekend and hope for sunshine next week.

Native American Game Fun

We had fun today in Montana History playing Native American games with Ms. Smith. What a treat to see what they did to entertain themselves and have fun. Ask your child which one was their favorite for free money tomorrow at check in.

As you know, we are now going on our field trip Tuesday, May 24th. Hope for sunshine.

We are going to be having our test on the Indian Reservations of Montana on Monday. Students will need to know the reservations and the tribes associated with them.

Tomorrow is SuperHero Day. NO hair color or face paint.

Have a great night.

Field Trip Date Change

Ok-so I am not losing it. I know last night I said we were going to Red Lodge on Friday come rain or shine. Well, Ms. Erickson & I love to see the "sunny", bright, positive side of things so we contacted Jeff and he was able to change the field trip to Tuesday, May 24th. The forecast looks to be much better that day, plus the grounds of the center would be too muddy this week. Just a reminder to you that it is the day of the school Bar-be-que so please make note of that.

Today in Science, we continued talking about habitats, predators, prey, etc. If your child can tell you 2 things about the savanna, write it in the planner for free money.

Have a great night and get out and enjoy before the rain comes.
