Reading Fun!

Today the students really enjoyed their time reading on their blankets, pillows and towels around the room. Mr. Peri's 2nd graders came to buddy read with us, Mrs. Middelton read a story to our class, and we had a special snack of milk and cookies!

Read In Wednesday

This Wednesday, June 16 we will spend some time reading our favorite stories in school. Students can bring in a favorite blanket, beach towel, or pillow to lay on. We will have the older students coming in to buddy read with us, do reading themed activities, and we will have a special snack of cookies and milk. Students may bring in their favorite books from home, but please have the student's name on it somewhere.

Here are our plans for the last week of school:

Wednesday 6/16: Read-In Day

Thursday 6/17: 9:00 Awards Ceremony and class party right after

Friday 6/18: Last day of school

Kindergarten End of the Year Awards and Celebration

Thursday, June 17 we will be celebrating all the accomplishments of our students this year. Please join us at 9:00 in the UPA gym for our Awards Ceremony.

Following after, we will have a class party with our parents and students. I am providing cupcakes for the students to decorate. If you wish to being a small treat or snack to share, it is welcome!

After our treats, we will play some games as a class. In the afternoon, we will watch a special movie.

We would love to have you with us to celebrate with us Thursday morning. Please let me know if you wish to attend or bring a treat.

My Kindergarten Teacher

Sadly, the elementary school I went to is closing after this school year. Friday, the school had a celebration for all the former and current teachers, staff, and students. I was chosen to be the former student to give a speech about my time at the school during the ceremony. It was so nice to see all my old teachers and tell them all about the class I am teaching now. I though you might enjoy this picture. Here I am with my own kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Habbic!

More Outstanding Exhibitions

I really want to congratulate all the students for their wonderful exhibitions! I was so impressed at what they learned about their animal and how they met their learning goals! I also want to thank the parents and families who helped at home and were present to support the students. Great job everyone!

More Excellent Exhibitions

I am so impressed this trimester! So many students are completing wonderful presentations and are meeting all the exhibition requirements! Here are some more students who shared today.

Spring Exhibitions

Wow! What a great start to our exhibition week! Check our some of the students' presentations about their favorite wild animals!

UPA Carnival

The 5th annual UPA Carnival was Friday. Many students in our class came with their families for games, food, prizes, and lots of fun! Ms. Sangeorzan, my husband, and I ran the fish toss game. Check out all the good times!

Butterfly

In science we are learning about living things. The past few weeks the students have watched caterpillars make a chrysalis and now turn into a butterfly. Yesterday, we let our butterfly go.

Fun Run!

Over the long weekend, UPA hosted the first Fun Run at Belle Isle. I didn't get everyone, but check out some of our friends exercising and having fun in the sun!
