Week 11 Newsletter

Today was our very first speech of the year: Pumpkin Speeches! Everyone brought in a pumpkin they had carved or decorated and then told a narrative story about their pumpkin. We had some very creative and interesting pumpkin characters and everyone did a great job giving a speech in the front of the room.

We are also nearing the end of the first trimester. Time is going by so quickly! Report card conferences are fast approaching. You can sign up for a conference time HERE or just confirm your appointment. I look forward to meeting with all of you in a few weeks.

Week 10 Newsletter

What a fun week filled with so much spirit! Friday was our Mohr Tech Trek and I loved seeing everyone's Aloha spirit. Our class did a great job running around the field, gathering donations, and enjoying a chance to win many fun prizes! We had several winners from our class for the big raffle prizes. I'm so glad everyone had such a great time participating.






Last week was Outdoor Ed and we had an amazing time! Camp Campbell was a truly beautiful home to us for those 4 days and it was great to see so many smiles on everyone's faces. I have uploaded the pictures I took and added them to our PHOTOS page on the tab above, which you can also locate HERE. Feel free to download your favorites!

It's finally here! 

After weeks of talking about it, we are finally heading to Outdoor Ed tomorrow.

We are going to Boulder Creek. The temperature is supposed to be in the 60s and low 70s. Please pack layers for your kids as it can get cool at night.

I will be tweeting pictures from camp, depending on the wireless access. My hope is that you will get a chance to see what we are experiencing at camp every day. Check our class twitter page (or class website) for newest updates.

On Friday, our hope is to return to school by the 2:50pm dismissal. For the newest time updates, please contact the school office as they will know when we are on our way.
