Pumpkin Fun

We carved a pumpkin today.  Of course, we had some fun measuring it before we opened it up and counted the seeds.  The pumpkin is 15 inches tall and the stem was 4 inches.  We measured the circumference and it is 30 inches around.  After estimating, we counted all the seeds and there were 434 seeds inside our pumpkin.  We talked about what to do with the seeds and we decided to save them until spring time and plant the seeds.  Then everyone can take home a pumpkin plant to grow their own pumpkin next year. 

Parent Teacher Conferences

Thank-you for attending conferences.  I have a great bunch of students this year and it's nice to meet and talk with parents. 

Powell Hall

We enjoyed our trip to Powell Hall today. Bobby Norfolk was the storyteller and we all enjoyed acting like conductors during the music program.  Ask your child about the trip.

Our Zoo Trip

A few weeks ago, our class went to the zoo.  It was a beautiful day and we had a great time learning about animals.  We were very excited to see a baby donkey in the Children's Zoo.  We saw the a baby lion in Big Cat Country.  It was a fun day of learning.  I put the photos together into a video.  I hope you all enjoy it.
