I feel truly blessed to once again receive a grant from the Lowell Education Foundation!! They do some amazing things for the teachers of Lowell Area Schools!!
We were awarded partial funding to pilot Raz-Kids and Headsprout in our classroom. Two of our first grade teachers are also able to help pilot these programs. These are both programs from readinga-z.com. Many of you have also utilized these programs from home... at least Raz-Kids. Soon you will also be able to use Headsprout from home as well. We are already seeing AMAZING things happening since using these programs! If you are more interested in LEF and what they do please look them up on Facebook or at http://www.lowelleducationfoundation.org/ ALSO if you would like to donate to the Foundation please do so: Lowell Education Foundation 300 High Street Lowell, MI 49331 616-987-2500 www.lowelleducation.org

A little late on this post...
Thank you to everyone who sent in GREEN FOODS for our fun snack to celebrate St. Patrick's Day! We had a lot of fun:) This is the first time I have ever done a TEAM project in Kindergarten! Phew...we all survived! It was amazing to see how difficult it was/is for a 5/6 year old to compromise on certain things. It was also hard at times to balance different personalities. We really guided the kids to make sure that everyone had a part. Some are natural leaders and needed to let others be more involved, some needed some real 'urging' to get involved, others got sort of 'stressed' when things weren't going just right. What a GREAT experience it was!! Thank you to those who were able to come and see them first hand. If you missed it, we will display them in the hallway after Spring Break.
