Zoo!

We went to the Oregon Zoo!


It was an amazing field trip. Luckily the rain held off until we returned safely and soundly to Sexton Mountain. We all saw many animals and wrote about them in our zoo notebook.

Here are some pictures of our fantastic field trip!

It's Been Awhile...

Hello again!

So much has happened since November.

Here's a quick recap:

December

Our class participated in a gift exchange with Miss Ashlee's class. We all sat around the holiday tree singing holiday tunes. We created a handwritten card and a handmade gift for each student in Miss Ashlee's class. We worked on turn taking, waiting your turn, and creating a gift for someone else. It was tons of fun!







January
 
This month we... I'm going to be honest. I don't have any pictures of January. I'm sure we had a great time learning, creating, imagining, playing, and did I mention learning?!  :) 

February 

We went BOWLING! I'm sure you heard the students chatting endlessly about our fantastic bowling field trip!  We took a Trimet bus to Sunset Lanes. It involved lots of walking, a few minutes of bowling, a short time eating, and more walking! We were very lucky it was a nice day!






March

March started out with Dr. Seuss' birthday.  On March 2nd we ate...green eggs and ham! Yum! It was truly a wonderful surprise! Each student was offered a bowl full of green eggs and green ham. Most students at least attempted to eat this exciting snack. A few students posed for pictures, then promptly dumped the eggs and ham into the garbage! Regardless of the outcome, it was a great language opportunity for all students. They continue to talk about it to this day!







Soon April will be upon us!

Hopefully Spring weather will be upon us soon. When we have a beautiful, sunny day we may take a leisurely stroll around the track!

We're looking forward to a field trip to the Zoo in April, the Special Education Track and Field events in May, and then the end of the school year in June. Wow! Time sure flies when you're having fun.
