Happy 243rd birthday Johnny Appleseed!  Miss Robison's first-grade class had a fun day today!  We started the day by making panhandle hats.  We did many curricular activities involving apples including graphing the color of apple the students brought to school and sequencing the story of Johnny Appleseed.  To end the day we got to watch the movie "Johnny Appleseed" while eating our homemade applesauce!

The 1st Grade Grandparents Program was a success!  These students worked so hard since school started to learn all the songs and their parts!  We had a practice every day this week and then they got to perform at the end of the day on Friday!  We are so grateful for all the grandparents and special guests that came to support these little ones!  They were beyond excited and did such a great job!
