Mrs. Whittemore’s class has been hard at work becoming grammar pros! ✏️📚
This week, students focused on finding and writing possessive nouns. Using their writer’s notebooks, they practiced forming singular possessive nouns and plural possessive nouns, paying close attention to where those apostrophes belong.
After practicing together, they were ready to try it on their own, independently writing possessive nouns and showing what they know! I love seeing their confidence grow as they apply new skills in their writing. Keep up the great work!

Our first February Play and Learn was a success! We had 11 kiddos join us for a fun, construction-themed hour. The children enjoyed a read aloud, played with puzzles and cars, and got creative making construction hats and pictures. We wrapped up our time together with a goodbye song and a snack. Such a sweet morning of learning, playing, and building community together!

I love seeing this kind of focused thinking in 2nd grade. 💛
Today, students were working on a phonics picture sort, really listening for the difference in beginning, middle, and ending sounds of two pictures. They said each word slowly, stretched the sounds, and had to decide exactly where the change happened before placing their picture. That careful listening and sound work is what builds strong readers.
It may look simple, but this is the foundation. Proud of the effort and concentration happening during literacy time! 📚✨

Mrs. Bellerose’s first graders roped in great behavior and hard work to earn a rootin’ tootin’ Cowboy & Cowgirl Valentine’s Party! Watching her lasso her little cowpokes was the perfect way to celebrate a class that always wrangles up kindness, effort, and heart. 💕🐴

Using our fundraising funds, we recently purchased sleds for recess time. Students (and staff!) had a blast using the sleds. Everyone did a great job taking turns and being safe.

We had a wonderful time at our first annual Gingerbread & Giggles Decorating Party! This new community event replaced our traditional Santa’s Breakfast, and it was a huge success. Families received everything they needed to create their own gingerbread houses, enjoyed gingerbread men cookies and milk, and spent time visiting with Santa and Ginger. Each family went home with their completed gingerbread house and a Gingerbread Man book to enjoy together. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this event so special.
It's Christmas Spirit Week next week!
