Mystery Readers

We had a very tiny Mystery Reader!  ES's baby sister came in to help their mom read to our class.  It was very funny to see a baby wearing a disguise!

Teacher Appreciation Day

Thank you to all of the families for the beautiful flowers!  Mrs. Bock and Mrs. Kennedy made 4 gorgeous arrangements for us!  We put them all around the room and they really brightened up this gloomy weather day!
