Happy Holidays!

We were soooo looking forward to getting together and opening our presents! Mrs. Stowe got a bracelet. It included pictures of her and Mr. John!

Ms. Malcom got some bird seed for her bird feeders at home!


Mr. John got a book (made by Ms. Malcom) about the bird tree tradition that he shares with us each Christmas!

The kiddos loved opening their presents!




Ms. Jerri got a picture frame with a picture of our class!




After opening our presents, we enjoyed some yummy treats!


Then, Mr. John read us his new book!



It was such a fun day and we really enjoyed our time together! Thanks to all who sent gifts for our students, Mrs. Stowe, and myself. We appreciate you thinking of us! Happy Holidays everyone!



Christmas Carols!

On the last day of school, before the holiday break, we had some very special visitors. Ms. Lane (D'Andre's mother) stopped by to spend some time with us. Mr. John (Mrs. Stowe's husband) and Ms. Jerri (Mrs. Stowe's sister) also stopped by!

Mr. John brought his drum and we sang Christmas carols!


Mrs. Stowe played the keyboard!

Then, we got a chance to play the instruments. That was fun!








Just a Cute Picture...

I had to share this picture because I think it is just too cute! These two are best buds!

Polar Express Pajama Party!

A few days before the winter break, we got together with our friends from Mrs. Roberts' class to watch the Polar Express. We were so happy because we also go to wear our pajamas to school! That was fun!

Ms. Malcom and Mrs. Roberts wore their pajamas too!

The "goodies" that our class brought to the Polar Express pajama party!
We loved watching the movie with our friends!
We had popcorn, cookies, and hot chocolate!
This was definitely D'Andre's type of activity. He had so much fun!
Tanayry loved the candy canes!
Santoes was so cute in his pajamas!

Our class pajama picture! Too cute!
Thanks to Mrs. Roberts' class for having us. We had a wonderful time!

Making Christmas Lists!

One Christmas tradition that Ms. Malcom does with her family each year is making Christmas lists. She decided to share this tradition with our class. We got out all of our toy ads, from the newspaper, and got to work making our Christmas lists.













We had a great time making our Christmas lists. Then, we put them in our stockings. I think this is a tradition that we will continue each year in our class.




Special Olympics Basketball!

Before Christmas, we participated in Special Olympics basketball events at Turner Lake. We were the only elementary school class there with a middle school, high school, and adult group. It was lots of fun!

Mr. and Mrs. Mangum (Tony's parents) got the opportunity to come and watch!


We had lots of waiting time before it was our turn. We enjoyed this time together!

Ms. Malcom and her buddy!


Tony and Draylan are such great friends!


Way to go Draylan!


Ms. Malcom playing with Tanayry as they wait!


We got to see DeAsia, one of our old friends from last year. It was so great to see her!


Tony was excellent with all of his basketball skills!


Enoch had a blast!


Always the ladies man! :-)


Tanayry was ready to go!


Coach Latrelle worked with D'Andre on his dribbling!


Santoes loved dribbling!


We had such a great time at our basketball skills events. We were so proud of all of our students!
