This week was very fun and very eventful. Tuesday was the 50th day of school. The students count each day of school, we stop along the way at milestones. The first is the 50th day of school! It is exciting to celebrate learning. Our next big number celebration will happen on the 100th day of school.
Everyone dressed in their 50's clothes!
Enjoying root beer floats!
Making records
Rolling to 50
Bubble gum blowing contest
Gavin and Logan blew the biggest bubbles!
The cafeteria also participated in all the 50's day fun!
The cafeteria was decorated like a 1950's diner.
We enjoyed hamburgers and french fries just like a diner.
Then it was time for the "Sock Hop", the students learned dances from the 1950's in music leading up to the big 50th day. They were great dancers and had loads of fun.
Here is a video of some of the great fun from the Sock Hop!

This week we learned two letters. We first learned the letter Ss, everyone wore "silly socks" to school!
Jacob brought a spaceship for Ss show-and-tell.
We also learned the letter Ff, the students traced their feet and made "funny feet".
Cruz and Joseph brought flashlights for Ff show-and-tell.
We continued to practice writing this week. Also the students took their first spelling test this week, they did fabulous!!! Great work!!
The thematic unit was "pumpkins". We learned about the life cycle of a pumpkin and read many great fiction and non-fiction books about pumpkins. Everyone loved learning about pumpkins and this is a great way to get ready for the "Pumpkin Patch" field trip coming up!
Making jack-o-lanterns
The students made "magic pumpkins" by mixing together yellow and red paint and creating a pumpkin.
The students used linking cubes to measure the heights of different pumpkins.
Everyone's most favorite pumpkin activity, was carving a real pumpkin!
First everyone worked together to clean out the pumpkin.
Then Ms. Marzoni carved a jolly-wolly pumpkin face!
Happy Birthday, Cody!
