April Fun!


We are just loving this weather!  It makes reading and writing so much more enjoyable:)

April Hallway Display





We have been working hard on painting flowers for our hallway display. Mrs. Greene is the creative one in our classroom and she thought up all the ideas for this Spring scene that included flowers, a caterpillar, and grass. The students did such a great job working on this project together and I am so proud of them! If you come to JBD- make sure you check it out in!

Exploring Our Spring Tree




Spring is Here! Things are growing and changing in our class. We took our science notebooks outside to document what our tree looks like in Spring and how it is different from the winter tree, fall tree, and summer tree.

Community Helpers





We are studying community helpers and are so lucky to have so many members of the community come and talk to our classes about their jobs. We have had a firefighter, a dentist, and a soldier visit our class so far.

The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore

Our class watched this amazing animated short (about 15 minutes long) which celebrated the joy of reading. It was so good! If you would like to rewatch with your child, the video is on you tube. I believe the video just won an Oscar award.
