Summer!

Aww, I miss you already! I spent the last three days in Helena at a conference with a lot of other teachers from around the state. Next week, I'll be here for another conference for teachers. I hope you are having fun so far!

Remember to read this summer to keep up your reading level! (It takes even just a few books!!)

See this video:

And remember to make use of the library! You can ask the librarian for reading levels or make a comment and I can let you know your child's reading level!

Please comment any time to let me know what you're doing this summer! I will still do a few updates!! I hope you've had a great week!

Almost There!

Ahh! We are so close to the end of the year! Today we went down and toured the second-grade classrooms. Although there will be a little moving around of classrooms because we will be adding a fifth second-grade room, we still took a walk to check it out! The second graders read us letters and showed us some of their work. Our class got to ask questions and meet some of the teachers. A lot of our kiddos said they felt better after getting to see it and were excited about the projects, whereas others said they felt even more nervous! I tried to reassure them that ALL of the second-grade teachers are fabulous, and they will get to be with their friends! Due to Walk to Read this year, there are students from all classes who are good friends! I know that whoever your child gets for second grade will be excellent. They are all great!

Of course, I just hope they still come see me whenever they can! What a fun year we have had!

What a Fabulous Day!!!






Wow, what a great experience today was! We spent all day outside doing science-related activities and also had the Forest Service, Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks, and Montana Outdoor Science School teaching us!

I could tell you what we were doing in each photo, but wouldn't it be better if your child told you? :)

Thanks to our chaperones and everyone who donated time and money this year to pay Montana Outdoor Science School for their teaching today!
