Dental Health

February is Dental Health Month, so this week we spent a little bit of time talking about our teeth and how important it is to take care of them! We did a little experiment using eggs as our "teeth," and we soaked them 4 different liquids for 3 days. We used coke, grape juice, water, and milk. We were looking to see which liquids are good for our teeth, and which ones are not so good. We also talked about how to clean our teeth when we do drink things that aren't so good.


The eggs in coke and grape juice were very stained!


We got some toothpaste and brushed to get them clean!

Goodbye Miss Vetter

Well I took on my first student teacher this spring, and luckily I can say it was a great experience!! The kids loved having her here as well and are definitely going to miss her! Good luck with everything!


Valentine's Day

Well we made it through the last party of the year! As always, the kids had a blast and claimed, "it was the best party ever!" We played some games and had yummy snacks! We got to "deliver" all our valentines earlier in the day, as to not take up our party time! Thanks to all my kiddos for the goodies I got!

Hockey Players

To kick off Reading Month, we had surprise guest readers! The Minot State hockey team had players come in to read us a hockey book! It was so much fun! They did a great job and even gave us stickers and tickets to their game next week!! How awesome!! 



100s Day


This week we celebrated the big "100." The 100th day of school that is! To celebrate, we did activities dealing with 100 all day long! We made 100's day hats with 100 shapes on them, counted to 100 in many ways, wrote about what we would do with $100, counted out our collections, and had a wonderful 100's day snack!
