October 2016 Box Tops 1st Place Winners...
Congratulations to Miss Mellor's (afternoon) Kindergarten class for collecting the most Box Tops. The 1st place prize includes 100 Scholastic Dollars to spend at the Scholastic Book Fair (look at all of those great books), some Extra Recess time and the Golden Crayon. Way to go! Remember to keep collecting those Box Tops, we will have another Box Tops Race in February.
We had some fantastic competition in this year's race for class president! Each class voted on two nominees, then after a week of campaigning, we heard the nominees' speeches and a debate, then students voted for class president. The states the students had chosen turned out to be their Electoral College votes, which was a crazy twist! All of the nominees did a fantastic job and will make great class presidents and vice presidents!
5th grade is having a blast with Officer Dewitt in DARE! He brought his car in and we got to sound the sirens!
Our third grade students have been working on multiplication. They made an array board to show what the multiplication table represents.
Mrs. Dimmick's class has been working on writing fractured fairytale stories. They typed their own stories and made them into books. They are sharing the stories with each other and then the books will be in the school library for a couple of weeks for the rest of the school to enjoy.
Students in 1st through 6th grade(s) who are interested in writing can sign up for our Writing EXTRA program at Spanish Oaks. Under the direction of Mrs. Carolyn Aagard, interested students will meet in the computer lab on Tuesday, November 8, Thursday, November 10, and Tuesday, November 15, (with an optional meeting on Thursday November 17) from 3:20 p.m.
A big thanks for our great bunch of "treasures" this week. Thanks, students for being so awesome!
