Botanists at work

Today we planted sunflower and pumpkin seeds so we can watch  and study them as they begin to grow. With our sunny classroom they will be sprouting in no time!

Reading Challenge Success!!!

Thank you to all the parents and families who supported our April Reading Challenge at home by reading with your students and recording minutes read at home. The school surpassed the goal of 100,000 minutes and read a whopping 155,735 minutes! Wow! Be sure to ask them all about Mr. Bairstow's celebration of our challenge.

Our class did an amazing job with this challenge--our name was often called in the top 3 for our grade level and we also were recognized one week for increasing our weekly reading!


Wow, 7,890 minutes in 4 weeks! That is something to be proud of. The students loved the bookmarks they took home today, and I've got one last reward for tomorrow....
