We have amazing readers here at Spanish Oaks, and here are just a few of them that are celebrating with Mrs. Brown. They got to frost and decorate cookies, and then best of all, eat them! A special thank you to Aubrey Smith for organizing these activities each month! She is amazing!
We learn about living and non living things in 3rd grade. The students have been discussing the 8 characteristics that make something living. Today they were able to see how live worms react to: light, heat and water. Each student made a prediction, observed what happened and came up with a conclusion for why they thought the worm reacted in a certain way.
Thank you, students, for a great week! We are glad we got to celebrate your super behavior by having your represent our school as our Big Umbrellas of the Week.
Mrs. Baldwin's class had a great time acting out parts of the story Paper Bag Princess by Robert Munsch. It was a fun learning experience! Our Drama Specialist taught us to do stills of a story to keep students involved and to boost comprehension. It works well. You do see two dragons flying because two students wanted to be the dragon who kidnapped the prince.
Here at Spanish Oaks, we have a crossing guard who comes before and after school and helps kids safely cross the street. That is not all that this crossing guard does, everyday she gives away handmade hats that she crocheted to the kids. She doesn’t know most of the kids but she still gives away hats to as many kids as she can. Most students just know her as the crosswalk lady or the hat lady. We thought we should give her some appreciation for her amazing acts of kindness, and get to know her a little better.
The students in Mrs. Stewart’s class have been practicing their fluency, accuracy and expression by working in groups reading Reader’s Theater. They have been practicing for the last couple of weeks and were able to perform them in front of the class today. They did such a great job !
