Our Marvelous Mitchell!



 Mitchell brought his poster showcasing all of his favorite things!
We learned about his family including all his cousins, his favorite sport, soccer, his favorite food, pizza, and his favorite characters including Angry Birds and Phineas & Ferb!


Mitchell's mom, Mrs. McBroom, is a teacher at the SCS high school.  She teaches Anatomy to the Seniors.  She brought "Mr. Bones" and taught us about different bones in our body.  We each got a skeleton to take home!


Mitchell's dad, Mr. McBroom, works at the North Texas Medical Center as a photographer and videographer.  He brought cameras, a tripod, and a light that he uses for his job!


Thank you to the McBroom Family for spending time this morning with us!
We enjoyed learning about your family and jobs!

Our Marvelous Chandler!!



We've had a lot of fun this week getting to Chandler and her family better!
Chandler's fun poster showed us that she loves her family, feathers, traveling, playing soccer, and supporting the TCU Horned Frogs!




Mr. Kunkel came to our classroom and told us all about his jobs!
He is a builder, owns rental homes, and owns several self-serve car washes in the Fort Worth/Arlington area.


In the picture above, the students sorted quarters from tokens from one of the Kunkels' car washes...It was a big job!  Each student was able to take home one of each for their hard work!  In the picture below, the students are 
washing, rinsing, and drying cars.  They enjoyed "working" hard! 



Thank you to the Kunkel family for spending your time with us and letting us get to know you better!  We had so much fun with your family!





We had two more Ice Cream Sundae Readers this week!  Great job Luke and Mavanee!

Keep Reading!!

 Our Marvelous Me...Karis!

We enjoyed Karis' fun poster showing us all her favorite things like...
her family, fishing, skiing, Disneyland, and boogie boarding!


Mr. Jones taught us all about his job as a civil engineer.  We learned how water gets from rivers to our faucets in our homes and then back to the rivers!
We even got "engineer scales" to measure things ourselves!


Karis was so excited to have her mom and dad here with her today!



Mrs. Jones told us about her upcoming marathon and fundraising for the Leukemia/Lymphoma Society.  We each got a bracelet for the LLS!


Thank you to the Jones family for spending your morning with us!


We had two more teeth come out this week!
We are keeping the Tooth Fairy busy!

 Congratulations Readers!!

Luka, Marin, and Kyle enjoyed their ICE CREAM SUNDAES for successfully reading 15 books!  Good job and keep up the hard work!

I know the others are working hard to earn theirs soon too!




We enjoyed a beautiful morning outside at 
"See You At The Pole"!



We sang together "Here I am to Worship".




We prayed for our country and its leaders, our school, our families, and had private prayer time to pray for individual needs.

We were so excited to celebrate with Emilie today!


We had a sweet treat of sprinkled donuts!




Jack is our Marvelous Me this week!

Jack worked hard on his poster showing us some of his favorite things including...his family, super heroes, legos, his battle scenes, and much more!

We enjoyed learning more about Jack and his family!




Mr. and Mrs. Greer came to tell us about their jobs, too.
Mr. Greer is an accountant for Radio Shack and stressed the importance of math to the students.  
Mrs. Greer works at Children's Hospital in Dallas with autistic children helping them talk and play.  
She talked to us about how we're all different and special.





Mrs. Greer also read us a book called Giraffes Can't Dance.




The Greers brought each student bubbles (a "toy" ALL kids enjoy) 
and a highlighter (for Bible verses)!



Thank you to the Greer family for spending time with us this morning.
We appreciate you!

We've had a GREAT week in Kindergarten!

Here are a few things we've been up to...



Mavanee (aka Joseph) wore her beautiful coat of many colors while the rest of the class (aka Joseph's brothers) showed their "jealous" faces!  We have been enjoying our Bible lessons and learning all about Joseph and his strong relationship with God to get himself through hard times.



 (Madyson with Marina)

We also met our Big Buddies this week!  
They are 6th graders from Mrs. Gingras' class.
We'll be meeting with them throughout the year to do activities together!

(Jack with Tatum & Ben)


On Friday, we learned how to do a word search.
We had lots of fun practicing on the SMART board.
Afterward, we each did one on our own and "searched" for our sight words!
