Growing and learning in first grade. Follow us on Twitter! Check out our 2014-2015 Kidblogs! Friday, June 5, 2015. This week my 1st Grade class and I celebrated our last day together. Of course, these remarkable human beings ended. 1st Grade with a bang. And are all set for making a positive difference. In our world as they head to 2nd Grade and beyond. They will do just that, and more. It was my last day, too, as I took that big step, with my husband, into retirement.

Sharing lunch with The Playcentre in Room 6. Some children are having lunch at Kindy. We are playing outside at lunchtime. Then we rolled the clay into a ball shape. Next we made a hole with our thumb. We had to pinch the clay to make the hole bigger. Finally we decorated our tooth containers like in our plans. We shared what we have found out about Macandrew Bay School from a long time ago. The Room 2 children read stories to us.

Cathy and Robbie came to tell us lots about the joints in Our Body. We asked lots of questions. We like putting things onto The Body. We know lots about the things in our body. Look at the cake Fideli brought for us. It looks like the Nowegian flag. It was yummy! Look on their blogspot to see what they are doing.

First I cut and draw my cat. Next I stick it on the bright orange card. Then I cut the bright eyes. Finally I get the strips of white paper and stick them on for whisker and cut a mouth.
