Mrs. Budahl's second-grade class is learning all about recycling for Earth Day! With the help of a special guest, Dr. Pruitt, these second-graders learned how to recycle old (clean) socks and make them into sock monsters! Not only are these students learning about different ways to recycle but also the important life skill of how to sew. Thank you, Dr. Pruitt!!
Mrs. Brua's first-grade class was hard at work today during their literacy centers! Some students worked in a small group with Mrs. Brua where they focused on reviewing r-controlled vowels with a fun activity. Other literacy centers included reading activities on computers, working on letters and sight words, and worksheets that reviewed 'R' or the word of the day, 'once'. Some students also got to enjoy reading a book independently. We love seeing all the different ways our students are working on mastering their literacy skills!
Mrs. Brua's first-grade class bid farewell today to their DWU practicum student, Miss Lucas. They truly cherished every moment she spent in the classroom with them! She was a perfect addition to their class over the last couple of months and provided immense help in assisting them with all their learning. We hope she has a wonderful remainder of her school year and summer, and we can't wait to see her rocking her own classroom in the future!
