I am so proud to be a part of such a great school and community!

Word Work Oh My!

When I had taught First Grade my they LOVED Word Work... turns out so do 5th Graders!  Here are some pictures of them using our Word Work materials (crazy markers, bingo dotters, stamps, etc.) to practice their spelling words. :)

Food Drive

I take so many pictures of these kiddos and I forget to post them!!  Here is an amazing class pictures of the 5th Graders and their WINNING canned goods and food for the food drive.  AMAZING!  So proud of them!

Wacky Wednesday!

Here are our long awaited Wacky Wednesday pictures.  I am extremely pleased that the students were willing to dress up for this day... I mean, why not make the best of each day?! :) Awesome job 5th Grade!

Our Classroom Video

I am so honored to be chosen as a Teacher of Distinction. Through this whole process the students and I had to create a video that represents who we are as a classroom.  They did an awesome job taking the lead in this... here is our final product!  I am so proud of them!  

More Laughter From 5th Grade!

It is always a great moment when students find something they are really good at!  This student has the wonderful ability to make people laugh... which made Laughing Therapy perfect for him!  Today he took a moment and led the class in his own Laughing Therapy session.  Awesome job!  Students, keep using your skills in a positive way.  I am so proud of all of you!

Laughing Therapy?!

Last week I attended a "New Teacher Training" on laughter and how important it is.  Did you know children laugh about 120 times a day and adults only 17?!  That was extremely sad to me.  We discussed laughing therapy and came across this video.  I tried this one with the students and it instantly became a favorite.  I mean, who wouldn't laugh watching 22 wonderful 5th Graders trying this!! :)  Enjoy!
