Boosterthon Fun Run!

            The Boosterthon was a great experience. Our class collected $1429.00 in pledges! That is awesome! I was super proud of them! I am also so thankful for all of their hard work to make this fund-raiser a success! Here is a picture of our class after the fun run. They learned about making good choices, had fun, and raised money for our school all at the same time!

3rd Quarter Awards

We had our awards for third quarter this past week. Our class worked hard to achieve many accomplishments this nine weeks. I am so proud of them all!

Table Rock Field Trip

We had a blast on our field trip to Table Rock this past Thursday. The students were able to have an outdoor classroom for the day. This field trip aligned with our study of ecosystems and human's impact on ecosystems. While we were there, we were able to investigate the abiotic and biotic factors of the stream ecosystem and the forest ecosystem. Ask your child about what they learned on the field trip. They were able to learn and have fun at the same time!

Boosterthon Fun Run

Thank you for your support of this year’s Boosterthon Fun Run!  The Boosterthon Fun Run is quickly approaching. The Fun Run is next Wednesday, April 17th  at 10:50 am. Hope you can make it out to see us run our laps. So far as a team, we are up to $ 28 per lap.  Our goal is $40 per lap. We’ve gotten pledges from 3different states, NC, SC, and TN! We even got a pledge from Canada!

 The students are having a blast learning about MAKING GOOD CHOICES through the HIGHWAY USA theme!  So far this week, we learned about how important it is to CHOOSE LEADERSHIP by being bold, setting a good example, and strengthening others with our words. Our class was also challenged to CHOOSE CHARACTER by making the right choice, even when no one is looking.  Yesterday, we were challenged to CHOOSE LEARNING. Our Highway Hero is Thomas Edison and students learned about how he changed the world through inventions. All of his success began with a desire to read and learn how the world works. We hope this creates some excitement to learn as we push through this final 9 weeks!

I hope that you are logging-on with your students every night and watching the Highway USA music videos, as well as getting pledges to help our school. You can log on at www.funrun.com .Thanks again for your help and support of our class! Let’s work together to finish strong and reach our goal as a team!

See you next week at the Fun Run!
