Do you like our new blog? Your children helped to create this site! In fact, each week the children will reflect on our activities at school and work together to write the posts. Our class is very excited to share pictures and videos with you.
Be sure to check in at least once/week to view the Upcoming Events and other features on the right for some important updates and helpful links.

Library
Last Friday we had a library introduction with Mrs. Marino, the new HMS Library Media Specialist. She read a very funny book called Peanut Butter & Cupcake. Then we watched a video and we talked about how to take care of library books.
Nature Walk (told by 1S students)
We had a nature walk today. We learned about scientists by reading our Scholastic News this morning. Scientists investigate to learn more about animals, robots, computers, instruments, insects and other stuff. They use tools like magnifying glasses, pencils to record data, flashlights, magnets, rulers, thermometers and more. We began our own investigation about insects and butterflies. We hunted for caterpillars and insects with magnifying glasses. We found 3 caterpillars. We saw 2 japanese beetles, 2 grasshoppers, yellow jackets and a monarch caterpillar egg on a milkweed plant. We were happy and excited to learn about insects, but Mrs. Surrette forgot to bring her camera to take cool pictures!
Open House
It was so great to see you at Open House. It's helpful to put faces to the families that students share stories and pictures about.
I'm sorry that I didn't get photos of all of you, but I would like to have a family photograph for each student. If you don't see yourself pictured here please send me a photo of you and your family to keep in our class photo album!
