Best in Show!

We had our first "Best in Show" ceremony today! All the Pre-k through 2nd grade classes went to the gym to celebrate those students showing their Beagle PAWS. Students that are caught doing the right thing are given paws by other teachers. The more paws they earn, the better the prize they get during the ceremony. Giving paws to other students help remind them of appropriate behaviors expected around the school. It is a great reward for them and helps reinforce good behavior! 

Students in Ms. Crowl's Class that earned paws from other teachers. Yay!

Math Time!

In kindergarten, math skills are very important! We are learning to count forward and backward to 5, learn about shapes, measurement, and much more. The children are learning to sort items by color, shape, size, and they love it!

Abel is sorting cubes by color!

Welcome to Kindergarten!

Hi Ms. Crowl's Owls! I am so excited to start a new kindergarten year with such a wonderful and energetic group of kids. We have been learning so much in these past few weeks of school and have much more to come.

The beginning of kindergarten focuses on a lot of rules and social skills such as working together, sharing, using kind words. One thing we are working on as a school is bullying prevention. The first school wide get together was put together by our art teacher Mrs. Frith. We celebrated bullying prevention by each student creating a pinwheel for "Pinwheels for Peace." The whole school created a pinwheel and sang a song to reinforce peace and bullying prevention. The kids had a great time!
