Sing-A-Long

On Friday, we had our holiday Sing-A-Long with our Book Buddies, Mrs. Pierce's 4th Graders.
First we practiced in the Music Room....
Then we went to the stage!  Up on the risers!   Would we see someone we
knew in the audience?
Now, the curtains opened and we started to sing!
This was fun!!!  Everyone clapped for us!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Veteran's Day Parade

The children enjoyed a brisk walk downtown to watch the Veteran's Day Parade.  They made United States flags before we left the classroom and waved them excitedly at the parade.  Nitya who is from India learned about how our Veteran's Day is celebrated and how we honor all the men and women who have served our country in the armed forces.

A special visitor reads to the class!

The children enjoyed listening to Vermont Education Commissioner, Armando Vilaseca read a story
to them in our library.  Mr. Vilaseca stopped by the library on a visit of our school and spent some time reading with the children before he continued on.  He showed the children how important reading is
by taking time out of his busy day to stop and read!

Bat Day!

Today, we dressed up with bat wings and bat masks as the culminating activity in
our study of bats.  We labeled the body parts of a bat, wrote acrostic poems using
the letters BATS, watched an amazing video of bats and finally made a bat cave
for the classroom.  You can see us here in our bat costumes getting ready for the day!
