Happy Mother's Day

Over the past few weeks we have sew a garden of love for our moms.  We planted a rainbow!  We have learned about what we need to do to plant and grow flowers...flowers we now present to our moms in honor of mother's day!  Students toted home packages of colorful plants last week.  Please help students care for and present them to mom.  We also created books about our mothers!  Wishing each mom a very special day.

Students were asked to share why they love their moms and why they are great.  Here are some of their thoughts:

Moms are great because:

They are super smart!

They hug us.

They hug and kiss us.

They give us new toys!

They give us kisses when we go to school.

They love us so much!

They give us snacks after school.

They tuck us in.

They make good food.

They give kisses.  

They love when we help clean up.

They hug us in the night!

Wishing all the mom, grand-moms, aunts and moms to be a Happy Mother's Day!

Much To Celebrate!

We have much to celebrate in Room 103!  This past week we recognized James' birthday, Surya was selected as Hoot of the Week and we had 2 moms in to teach us about their Community Helper jobs!  We love our classroom family and learning together!

Nicholas' mom is a nurse and she brought some supplies to try out!

We are also very proud of ourselves!  We are writing beautiful sentences and use all of the tricks of the trade!

Monday Marvels!

Congratulations to our recent 100 Club members on ST Math!  Both Gurhaan and Surya achieved 100% status recently!

Former Room 103 student and current first grade rockstar, Allie came back for a recent visit and read to us!  Thanks for visiting Allie!  Great job reading.

Our newest classmate, Troy is Star of the Week.  He was eager to share about himself!

We continue to collaborate with our 4th grade friends!  In addition to completing research to use in writing scripts for our presentations, we are creating illustrations of our animals and using the Drawing  Pad app to illustrate what our animal's habitat looks like!

A special thank you to Eliana's mom who helped us delve into our study of Community Helpers by sharing about her job as an elementary school librarian!  Eliana was quite proud to have mom sharing about all she does!

June Newsletter Posted

With the many activities planned in the coming weeks, Mrs. Hoyt and Mrs. Kerr thought it would be helpful to get a jump on posting the June Newsletter.  Included in the post is the calendar of events.  The newsletter tab is found at the top of this blog.

Moth

As we continue to learn about living things we witnessed a young Luna Moth today.  The science center sent us a cocoon last week and  this morning we discovered the moth!  It was beautiful!

Distance Learning Instead of Snowdays

Room 103 Families,

Please see information about distance learning sent home Friday, May 3rd in green folders.

Rocking It!

Room 103 kindergartners were able to try climbing across the Pine Glen rock wall earlier this week.  Students stretched themselves a little out of their comfort zones and increased their confidence level in the process.

A special thank you to Ms. Govoni, one of Pine Glen's P.E. teachers who introduced us to the wall and made sure we were safe!
