Dear Starfish Families,

I hope you stayed warm with your families this past weekend.  We are hoping for some outdoor recess for the rest of the week here at school!  We celebrated 100th day of school and Valentine's Day in a big way last week.  We had lots of fun!  


Here's just a glimpse of the activities: 


Had our Annual Starfish Valentine Card Shop

(Thank you to Denise Bergeron and Shelly Cartwright for helping out with the store!)

Had a delicious ice cream social and shared our Valentine Cards 

Thank you for your donations! 

Used an App to make ourselves look 100 years old (coming soon!)

Wrote about our life from a 100 year old perspective

Working on our 100 word books

Made structures using 100 toothpicks and marshmallows

Read 100th Day Worries and The Night Before the Hundredth Day of School





Check out some birthdays we celebrated in February! 





Fox in Sox Monday!



Check out these awesome 100 Day Posters! We had some great conversations about ways to make 10! 

















 We made the Dragon from My Father's Dragon series as our second book celebration! The kids are excited to bring home their dragons tomorrow afternoon!





 We made Valentines for the homeless last week with our 3rd grade buddies! 






 We added two 100th Day songs to our Poem and Song Journals
 We enjoyed Mr. Johnson coming in to read some of their family favorite stories for Mystery Reader this afternoon!
