Jogathon

We are so excited for the Jogathon!

Can we jog more laps than when we were in first grade?




 

Waiting to start running!
Lexis is on the move.

Our class sure did win a lot of prizes!

Our two girls who tied for the most laps and our boy who ran the most laps.They ran over 25 laps!

Our class won a LOT of the prizes that came from the drawing during the Jogathon.
 
We ran a lot of laps. We are figuring out how many laps our class ran in math. It's a big number!
 
A huge cheer for the PTSA and the fabulous Mrs. McCauley for putting so much effort into our event. We had such a great time.

Fall Trees with Mr. Martin's Class

This was a terribly exciting day for us because Mr. Martin invited us to his room to share in an art project: Fall Trees.

Second, third and fourth graders worked together... with PAINT!




When we finished, Mr. Martin read a very funny book to the two classes while some of us cleaned up the room. He read this book with such good expression, that we all laughed. Mr. Martin loves to make people laugh.

 
Thank you, Mr. Martin's class. We enjoyed our visit.

King County Library Bookmobile Visits

We were so privileged to have the librarians from the King County Library come to visit us.


Principal Ficken introduces the librarians.


This is Ms. B!

We were treated to three great stories.

This is the really cool Bookmobile.

We got to go inside!

Isn't it fabulous?

The librarians had to go to school to learn how to drive this big rig.


These are the genrous donors that made this program possible.

There are three bigger Bookmobiles than this one. This is the Bookmobile that is used for demonstrations like this one. The Bookmobile goes to parks, retirement homes, senior citizen homes, and other locations to make checking out books easier on its patrons.
 
The students were given KCLS library cards and information on how to get the card activated. They will need their adult to take them to the nearest library to get it activated. The students were truly excited for this fine piece of jewelry.
 
A big thanks goes to our friends of the public library. Aren't we lucky?
