Pumpkin Patch

If you come by our room you will see a unique looking pumpkin patch. We used measuring tools to cut 6inch long and 1inch wide strips of paper. The challenge was - can you create a pumpkin with just 6 of the strips. The Super Stars rose to the challenge! Each and every pumpkin is different.
Today in the Tuesday Folders you will find information regarding our next field trip. Please return slips and payment as soon as possible. To the parents who have volunteered for this field trip - I have been told it is easier for you to ride the bus with your student. Apparently the parking is difficult for this event.
Friday- PUMPKIN MATH! It is a free dress day, but no costumes allowed. BOO

Art A La Carte

Friday was a very exciting day! We had our first Art A La Carte lesson with Mrs. Dunn and Mrs. Dobson. After examining and discussing works of art, the students created their own using tinfoil, cotton balls and a blue and red crayon. The results were awesome! The art gallery is now open in the classroom. Come by and see. Friday was also the day we said good-bye to Ethnica. She is moving back to India. Ethnica made the day memorable by writing a note to each and every student and providing a delicious treat. We will miss you Ethnica, but hope you stay in touch with the blog. You will always be one of The Super Stars!!!
