There are a million reasons why I love being a teacher and this is one of them!  First Graders LOVE their teachers and this note melted my heart this morning.  My kiddos knew I was waiting on "pins and needles" to find out if I was selected to run in the Chicago Marathon (and I was:)). This note is one I'll cherish for a lifetime!

Our students are so talented at White Station Elementary!  Check out just a few of these fabulous pictures the students have done in art this year.  Please come by and take a walk in our art gallery for more!

We love school, but we love snow days too!  Here are a few pictures of the children.  They are poster children for the "Life is Good" motto!

Want a wonderful learning day we had when Mrs. Chen came and shared Chinese customs and traditions with us about the Chinese New Year.  The children watched videos, ate traditional foods, completed a paper cut-out art project, and dressed in beautiful clothing.  We had a wonderful time and a HUGE thank you goes out to Mrs. Chen for planning and preparing this event for our classroom! 

Science Fair

I am so proud of this cutie!  She did a fantastic Science Fair project titled, Can You Peel a Raw Egg?  Great job Lena!

100 Days of School

What an exciting day it is!  Today we dressed up like we were 100 years old!  We'll do some fun activities to help celebrate 100 days of learning too. We read stories, wrote 100 words, wrote equations to make 100, and celebrated our last visit from Zero the Hero.

We LOVED having Ms. Faultz come and read to our class on Halloween!  She is so creative!  Notice the cute tights.  She and Jayden made special treat bags for us too!  Thank YOU!!
