Happy Snow Day!

Hope you all enjoyed your snow day!  We stayed in for the most part but once we were plowed out this dog just couldn't get enough of the snow.

Newsletter for the Week of Feb. 12th and School is Canceled for Tomorrow

Are YOU ready for the blizzard of the year?  They've already canceled school for tomorrow so stay safe. This is how I remember winter being.  It hasn't even started yet but they're predicting a lot of snow!



Here's our newsletter for the week.

Sam and Dave Dig a Hole

This is a book I've been eyeing on Amazon and before I bought it a teammate had already ordered it. It's a cute book that leaves kids asking MANY questions.  I shared it with my class on Friday and had them respond in their Reader's Notebook.







Hannah was on the rug last week waiting for walkers to be called when we noticed ALL the static!


Also, we had a special visitor.  Harry Potter was in our room all day.

Would You Live in a Snow Globe?

After reading, The Snow Globe Family, students wrote what they'd do if they lived in one.



They also created their very own snow globe!  Here are some of the finished ones.









I usually just have the kids paint a paper plate and add their picture.  Then, they add background details.  I'm not sure if I'd make these again.  As adorable as they are they took a lot of time to make. I had to hot glue each cup to the cardstock.
