Week 22

Room 112 is full of lots of learners! The valentine exchange will be happening on Friday, February 12th. A list went home with the names of students in our class and staff at the school. We have a new friend that joined us this week whose name is not on the list... so if you are making cards for the class please make sure to add Denika to the list!

The published How-To's are posted in the hallway, so if you are interested in learning "how-to get ready for bed,"  "how to make a cat purr" and many other things, stop by and check them out! This week we also started our new letter writing unit. The students have been writing letters all year, but our letter writing unit will focus on the structure and organization of a well crafted letter.

We added Helen Keller to our biography journals this week. The first graders were eager to learn more about her and her perseverance!

Finally, thank you to all of the parents who helped make the Stephenson Auction such a success! A HUGE shout out to Joanna (Elise's mom) and Shannon (Reid C's mom) for sharing their amazing artistic ability and creativity with Room 112, and to Jen (Sasha's mom) for being an incredible MC :)

I can't explain how much I appreciate your constant support and the Auction was a true reminder of the amazing community we have at Stephenson. What a fun night!
