Week 2 of school is complete! We are starting to get into the routines of practicing the Daily 5 (reading) and have started Rocket Math. This week we started talking about living vs non-living things in Science and were able to venture out to the nature trail at Crescent to identify these things.

On Friday, students were introduced to "Hodag High Fives".  Ask your child about them! Students receive these for demonstrating the 4 B's at Crescent. If they have two at the end of the week, they receive a prize! Have a good weekend and I hope everyone was able to watch the Packers last night! GO PACK GO! -Mr. Richter

1st Day of School!

Today was a great first day of school! The students were able to get to know each other a little bit and we tackled the task of putting all of our school supplies away. Parents should be getting letters in the "Home" folder of each student. I'll be posting pictures of things we are doing in the classroom later this week. Enjoy the rest of your Tuesday.
