In Your Easter Bonnet, With All the Frills Upon It!

We are ready for Easter!  What a fun time we had decorating our Easter bonnets and derbies! Thanks for coming to help us, Mrs. Bingham.   Remember our hunt will be on the baseball fields at 9am.  We hope you can join us!

 We could not wait to get to decorate our Easter hats! We were so excited to use our decorations! Thanks to all who contributed!

Hard at work decorating!

"In your Easter bonnet, with all the frills upon it.....

You'll be the grandest lady in the Easter parade......

......

I'll be the proudest fellow in the Easter parade.

On the avenue, Fifth Avenue, the photographer will snap us!"

                                   Don't we look grand!

Reading is FUN-damental!

THANK YOU RIF!

Today we were excited to have the R.I.F. ladies visit again. Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) is the nation's largest nonprofit children's literacy organization. Through RIF sponsors, here in Lockhart, each child is given a book to take home to keep forever!  All RIF programs encourage reading literacy through reading motivation, family and community involvement, and the excitement of choosing free books to keep!  Thank you RIF!

Too good to put down!

We are so excited about our new books and READING!



We Crowned a King and Queen!

Today we crowned our first Sentence King and Queen!!    Each day the leaders complete the calendar tasks and write their last names and news on the board.  We have really been working hard at writing complete sentences.  To be crowned King or Queen the students have to "master" the three sentence checkpoints!    

 Check one: Our sentence has to begin with a capital letter.
 Check two: Our sentence has to have spaces between the words.
 Check three: Our sentence has to end with a period or exclamation mark!

Way to go Mikayla and Chris!

"Wild Thing" Wednesday!

                                    
This Wednesday as we studied letter Ww, we focused our math and reading lessons on the favorite children's book, Where the Wild Things Are. We began the day by brainstorming "wild things" and what they do.We wrote a class book about Wild Things and then problem solved how to use 20 claws and 4 paper sacks to create hands and feet to become wild things. We moved to music as we "let the wild rumpus start!" Our last project was working cooperatively in groups of 4 to create a life size wild thing! The boys and girls were so proud of their  creations!

                                           "Let the wild rumpus start!"

   We discovered that we can accomplish much if we work together!

                             
                                      Our Finished Projects:

Working together is so much fun!

Spring Break is Here!

We have had a busy Texas Public School Week as we anticipated the arrival of Spring Break! Today we had our "Salute to Texas" musical in PE.  Thanks to all who visited our campus this week.  The children were very proud to have you visit for breakfast and the musical.  They were especially excited about having you all visit the Book Fair!  Thanks so much for your support in all of our activities!  Have a super Spring Break with your family. We will see you bright and early on March 18!  Remember Daylight Savings Time!

Texas Public School Week !
