Full Day Friday!

This is a reminder that there is no class for Storm Lake Schools on Monday due to the Labor Day holiday.  Please take advantage of the events happening this weekend in our great city!  Kids, get outside and enjoy the weather! 

Community Calendar-Storm Lake United

Math

We are starting our year making class graphs of our birthdays.  We made a bar graph and a pictograph with our information, then compared it to another classes data.  We found out we have many July birthdays!

Today we talked about animals that live in groups and the labels we give them.  A pod of whales, a litter of kittens, a pack of wolves were some of our examples.  We then worked cooperatively to solve different kinds of problems involving the animal groups.  Fun! 

First Day

Hailey and Ximena started their morning right!  Great breakfast with friends!

Hunter worked so hard at using good vocabulary, sounding out words and drawing to show that he understood our story today.  Six Dinner Sid was a great story about a very sneaky cat!

Happy New Year!

I am looking forward to meeting all of my new students!
