Mrs. Morgan's reading class made a "Very Hungry Caterpillar" awhile back when we read all about caterpillars and butterflies. We read Farfallina and Marcel, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and a non-fiction book about the butterfly life cycle.

Newspapers in Education
Miss Ritter, an elementary education student at WKU, is completing an internship in our classroom. On Thursday, she taught a lesson where Mrs.Morgan's reading students highlighted sight words in a newspaper. The students did a great job!
James found a TON of our sight words!!

No More Monkeys Jumpin' On the Bed!
Ryan and Juan were all packed up, when Juan pulled out his library book for the two boys to read together while they waited to leave for the day. I snuck up on them to video their amusing narration!
If We Could Go To Antarctica...

Valentine's Day Party
We celebrated Valentine's Day on Monday. We had a popcorn and movie party. Before the party, we learned how to cut out paper hearts, we made our Valetine's Day cards mailboxes, and we passed out and read our Valentine's Day cards. It was such a fun day!
We watched The Chipmunk Adventure movie. It was really good!
Blake had a lot of fun today!

Goods and Services
We have been learning about goods and services in our economics unit. On Monday, each student received an index card with the name of a Glasgow or Bowling Green business. The students were to draw a picture of the business that they were given. We then placed all of our pictures on a large play mat that looks like a town. The students took turns "driving a car" to businesses and telling the class if that particular business sold goods or services. They also explained what kinds of goods and services these businesses sell.
