Week of April 30 - May 4

Kindergarten - Our show is one week away!  We are practicing on the stage now.

1st Grade - This week we opened 2nd grade music books and had a lot of fun exploring new songs.

2nd Grade - We shared some hand clapping and jump rope rhymes and games.  This was very entertaining!

3rd Grade - We've started our unit on Beethoven by generating lists of questions of things that the kids wanted to learn.  I read a book to them and soon we will get to know some of his music.

4th Grade - We started watching West Side Story this week.  After studying a ballet and an opera, this is a great way to end our year!

5th Grade - We had an excellent rehearsal on the stage yesterday.  We got through the first 1/3 of the show.  They are such good performers!

A special thank you to the PTA and our students for making this an awesome Teacher Appreciation Week!
