Our Science Stations and Signing Party


We had a blast during our Science stations this last week!
We reviewed our Science safety skills and different concepts we learned this year.
My little scientists had a great time!!! 
We did an experiment using safety goggles. Aren't we so cute!?!?



We used a stop watch and timed our friends doing jumping jacks.

How many jumping jacks can you do in 1 minute?

We used magnets to see what objects in the tub
were magnetic.

We looked at different rocks using hand-lenses.






Can I get your autograph?
Next, we signed our friends' autograph pages for our
end of the year scrapbooks.



Theme Days--next week!

We will also be having a theme each day for the last week of school on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. We will spend the end of the day having some fun with our classmates. :)

Monday: "All About Reading Day" - Your child can bring their favorite 2 books and a stuffed animal to read.

THANK YOU!!!

I want to thank all of you for such a wonderful week! You have made me feel so special with all of the beautiful cards, flowers, and gifts. I can’t tell you enough how much I absolutely LOVE your children!  They have learned so much this year and they continue to blow me away with their amazing minds and hearts. I don’t want to pass them along to first grade!! This is the  only drawback to being a teacher…. you have to give up those kiddos you have grown to love so much. L However, I know they will go on to be wonderful students and I hope they continue to stay in touch with me throughout their years.

Thank you again for making my year so special and for all of your hard work, support, and love. You all are the best! 

Love,
Mrs. Shelby
