This morning I had a district planning meeting. The students did a great job with our guest teacher! In the afternoon we had read and discussed story elements of Sing to the Stars. We also learned all about comparing with adjectives. It was so fun to celebrate Teri’s 8th birthday! She brought us some yummy chocolate covered pretzel sticks. Thanks for sharing your birthday with us Teri. Happy 8th Birthday!
