Leprechaun traps were AMAZING!!! I saw some very creative traps that were ready to catch a tricky leprechaun. The traps were set Thursday afternoon and were set off over night. Friday morning, our class walked in to a flipped classroom. Our class had am amazing time looking around at the mess and enjoying our treat for our hard work. Thank you families for another great monthly project!
Families, don't forget to use SMARTY ANTS at home. Log in information was given at back to school night. This is an amazing reading program that is also INDIVIDUALIZED! If your child still needs help with letter sounds, it will help them with that. If your child is ready to read CVC words, it will challenge them in that.
