New Wonders Reading Resources

Here is a sneak peak inside our whole group and small group reading time!





 


OUR FIRST GRADE READERS!!!!

I'm so happy to pass on the reading torch to my students!  They are doing a fantastic job picking a book to read to the class.






Race for Education

Students ran/jogged/walked their way to more technology available to our school!  They all tried very hard, I am so proud of them all!
 




Ms. Stotz

Ms. Stotz was a wonderful addition to our classroom.  She did a fantastic job working with the students.  We were sad to see her go.
