Progress and more Progress!

We start with a video of highlights from the week. First, you will see the Pre-K 3 & 4-year-old combined class sing "Grizzly Bear." You might recall a video of them playing the game a few weeks ago. Now, their goal is to learn the song. Second, you will see the Grade 1-2 class singing "Let it Go" (impromptu) while watching a short clip of a harp and piano demonstration.

The combined KG-2 class started a project on Monday. They are rewriting the lyrics to a silly rhyming song called, "I've a Pair of Fishes." Ask them to sing this song at home and they will surely put on a show. Below are pictures of the groups each creating their own verse to the song.

The Pre-K classes not only sung "Grizzly Bear," but we learned three new songs, "If You're Happy and You Know It", "Where Do You Start Your Letters?", and "I Can Sing a Rainbow." Please find most of the new songs on the Pre-K YouTube Playlist so they can sing them at home!

In library, students are making progress with self check-out and search strategies. The Grade 3/4 class started making non-fiction research lists on the library program, Destiny.

The Pre-K combined class again read and checked-out in small groups. The author of the week was Dr. Seuss.

Here is the KG/1 class learning how the barcode scanner works. All students successfully checked-out their own books!

Grades 3-8 had four hours of Annie, Jr. rehearsal this week. A special treat was having Mr. Josh, our Oliver Warbucks actor, join us for rehearsals. We are making huge amounts of progress and are excited to share our production with you on March 12th & 13th.

Here is a playlist with color-coded Annie, Jr. songs with lyrics.

Students can view the rehearsal calendar, practice the songs and get other powerful information in the Annie, Jr. Google Drive Folder. Information and a calendar are also on the left-hand side of this blog.

Annie actors must have their lines and blocking memorized by February 1.
