O is for Outside. Today we did a lot of our learning outdoors! The weather cooperated with the alphabet and we decided we really like it! We will be taking our learning outside more often!!
On Tuesday, May 13th, we will, again, welcome therapy dogs for letter R day, Read to a dog day. All the dogs are certified through the Alliance Of Therapy Dogs. The dogs go through a process that ensures they are appropriate for a variety of settings. They are observed in a medical facility for this evaluation process. The therapy dogs will never approach someone that is uncomfortable or that does not want to interact with them. They currently pair with many places both locally and outside of the area including WIU, U of I, OSF hospital out of Galesburg and Monmouth, the Red Cross, local emergency, police and fire teams and more. The permission slips from the last dog visit are still valid for this visit. If you have changed your mind about whether or not you want your student to participate, please call the office. We want to thank Liz Pagel and her group for organizing this visit. and of course we went to bank Levi, Georgia, Ben, Benson and Sadie! We can't wait to read to you.
3rd, grade students are testing out the Smart board!

Today is letter H - Helping Hands
1st grade watched a Franklin episode called 'Franklin Helps Out' and talked about the different ways he was able to help his friends and community. Together the first grade students came up with ways they can help their friends, teachers, family and our community. Then, they made a beautiful helping hands collage!
Thank you to everyone who came to enjoy Fine Arts Night at WPNE. We had so much fun singing and sharing our artwork. It was great to see so many families here. Thank you Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Fentem and Mr. Eden!
