Character Traits

Each month we celebrate a character trait winner. Today, all of the winners we have had so far were presented with an award from the HOUSTON ASTROS! They also got a free ticket to an upcoming game as well. All of the future character trait winners will also be presented with an Astro's ticket and award.

Our school counselor teaches a lesson each month. The students practice that positive character trait for a few weeks then write about a time they used that trait. This month was responsibility. Congrats to my winners! I am proud of you.

Wanted Posters

All of the kids were able to create a Wanted Poster with their alter ego. They had fun making them and all of the adults in the school had a good time reading them! Here are a few to enjoy.





RODEO DAY!

HOWDY PARTNERS! We had a boot scootin' good ole time yesterday in kindergarten for RODEO day. The rain couldn't stop us from having fun. We just brought the games indoors. Thank you to all of the volunteers that helped make this day special.


 
 
Were you able to recognize your little cowboy or cowgirl?










 
Today, we are enjoying the state dish for lunch. Chili of course! Today will be another fun day of learning to wrap up our Texas unit. I hope you all have a wonderful spring break with your family.

Dr. Seuss Day!

To celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday we read a few Dr. Seuss books and made Oobleck! Oobleck is a slimy green mixture that looks like a liquid but feels like a solid. If you you like to make some at home just mix corn starch and water together. We used green food coloring in the water to recreate the green mess that little Bartholomew tried to warn the Kingdom of Didd about.

Valentine's Day Fun!

Valentine's Day in kindergarten is always a fun day! Here are some pictures of our fun filled day...












At some point in the day the kids started growing colored facial hair... I figured I would join in on the fun too. Where else can you wear a big bushy pink mustache?

100th Day of School!

Happy 100th day of school! We made it! Together, we survived 100 days of kindergarten. We celebrated by dressing up as 100 year olds or wearing shirts that had 100 items glued on it. We all had a FUN day!

I have the best group of kids! Not to mention the cutest kids. They are full of personality and make my days so enjoyable. What's the old saying... "choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life." Well, thanks to ALL of my kiddos, that is exactly how I feel!  Looking back at the year, I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you to all of my parents that have helped make this a great year. I have awesome volunteers and support. Thank you for all that you do! The rest of the year is going to fly by so get ready!













Not only did we celebrate the 100th day of school... We celebrated Mrs. Wilkinson's 85 birthday! What a beautiful lady! Mrs. Wilkinson was my principal when I was in 1st-4th grade. It is an honor to teach at her school!
