W Day

Today was W day, and we were very busy! In the morning, we had our first grade picnic! We all wore our tie-dye t-shirts and looked great! The first graders were provided with watermelon at the picnic which fit in great with our W Day theme! It was a lot of fun and great to see so many parents were able to make it out. We got a little soggy from the rain that ended our picnic early, but that didn't stop us from having our W Day "Water Balloon Toss!" When the rain shower stopped, we paired up and went outside. We tossed the balloon, and if our balloon didn't pop, we took a step back. If our balloon popped, we were out. Soon there were only two left. Om and Alex went the longes without their balloon popping!

The Winners of the water balloon toss:

V Day

V is for Video and today we watched a movie. We were going to watch Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium, but there was something wrong with the DVD! So instead, we watched Ratatouille. It seemed like everyone enjoyed it!

U Day

U is for United States! Today we wore red, white, and blue to school. We also did "Flag Math" where we described the american flag using numbers, symbols, shapes and patterns. Another activitiy allowed us to explore the White House.

T Day

T Day was Tie-Dye Day. Everyone broght in a shirt to tie-dye. We all used the same color, so when we have our class picnic we can easily spot our class! The shirts turned out great and we can't wait for the picnic!

S Day

S is for Sports Day. Today, everyone wore shirts of their favoritie teams. There were many teams represented in our class. Tomorrow we will be making Tie-Dye shirts to wear to our First Grade picnic next week!

R Day

Today we celebrated R Day by wearing Red. We also had a "Read-A-Thon". After a morning full of fun Field Day activities, a Read-A-Thon gave us the rest we needed to finish out the day! Some of us seemed a little sleepy and even fell asleep while reading! I guess we really needed the rest!

Q Day

Q is for Quiet Day! Today was quiet day, and we were only allowed to talk in a whisper when we were in the classroom. Of course, we were allowed to talk normally at recess and music class! At times we forgot, and had to be reminded that it was quiet day!
