Sight Words

This month we will be studying sight words. To help your student, write these words on cards and place them around the house. Sight words are words that are used often in reading and sometimes do not follow phonics rules. We want our students to know them on sight. Just like we learn colors or shapes. These words will be reviewed next year in Kindergarten.

Chick A Fil Field Trip

I was so proud of our Busy Bee students. Everyone listened so well on our 1st field trip. I had so much fun and learned a lot about the yummy food and hard workers at Chick A Fil. Make sure next time you see Mr. York at Chick a Fil you say, " Hi"!

Valentine's Day Party

Many of our students showed up dressed for love. Thank you to all our students for all the fun and yummy treats. Ms. Amy, Ms. Brooke and Ms. Natalie feel so loved.

Brave Irene Experience!

We had fun reading a book titled Brave Irene. We then got dressed up like Irene in the book for the snow.
