Fifth graders celebrate Spirit week! Today was anything but a backpack.


In Kindergarten this week, we read the book Pick a Pine Tree. We were able to watch the giant flakes falling outside today, and even observed how it collected on the grass and trees.
We created our own wintery trees, to remember the excitement we all had on this day!

And here are a few more of the Thanksgiving Lunch photos; thank you, Mrs. Polizotto!

Mrs. Tardif shared, "We have been learning lots of facts about bats, and enjoyed listening to Stellaluna. Here are the bats we created!"

The Mrs. Hutchinson's first graders visited the Maine Wildlife Park last Friday. Here are some of the photos they shared.

Due to the weather forecast, Picture Day is postponed to Friday, September 27th. Paper order forms went home September 20th. If you do not wish to order, we would love to have the order forms back. For those who miss Friday, or are unhappy with their photos, we will have a makeup day (not yet scheduled, but generally approx. 3 weeks later).


Mrs. Tardif shares: Here is Kindergarten doing Q-tip painting! Another great way to strengthen the muscles in our fingers!





Mrs. Tardif's Kindergartners are doing their first of many "Pin Pokies." This is an excellent fine motor activity, which strengthens their finger muscles for writing. If you tape it to a sunny window - the shape should shine through!
