At my professional development on Tuesday, I learned a new and engaging way for KK to practice spelling. Today students practiced building words with beginning blends like drop, trip, spin, and grab.

Valentine Fun & Our Community Act of Service
KK enjoyed celebrating Valentine's Day by decorating bags, collecting & passing out valentines, playing games, making crafts, and listening to stories. Thanks to all the grown-ups who helped out at the party. The students had so much fun! We also worked as a grade-level to make blankets for the animals at the Olivette APA. We know they will be extra cozy now waiting for their forever families. Thanks to all the parents who were able to donate to our fleece fund. A special thanks to Elizabeth in KG's mom. She cut and prepped all of the fleece for us!

Black History Month
Each February OB creates a space for students to learn more about Black History Month. This year, each classroom chose a person to study and create a star for a walk of fame. KK learned about artist, author, and activist Faith Ringgold. Students chose the facts to display on her star and helped glue pieces of scrapbook paper to make it look like a quilt since Faith is best known for her story quilts. Students also had a chance to create their own story quilt. We hung these in our hallway.
