Mixing Colors

We made predictions about what would happen if we mixed primary colors together, then we experimented to find out what really happened and recorded our data. We are learning to be scientists!

Studying Light

We are experimenting with the properties of light.  Using a flash light and various materials, we are able to see if light is able to pass through certain objects.
We are learning that white light is made up of all the colors of the rainbow & we can see those colors if we split the light using prisims and/or water.

Sock Hop

Students who had an A/B average in behavior for the month of August were able to participate in the Sock Hop.  The Ancilary Teachers Hosted the event in the auditorium and Mr. Davis was our guest DJ.  The students had a great time!  Keep encouraging your little ones to be good listeners so they can participate in our monthly behavior incentives! :)

Modeled Reading in Whole Group Setting

Journal Writing

Journals are a great time to develop our writing skills.
We work on word lists, spelling words, and reflect on parts of a story:
characters, setting, and problem.
