I read Junie B. Jones everyday for a fun classroom read aloud. And, nothing makes my teacher heart happier than when firsties fall in love with reading her too. All these friends borrowed Junie B. books from the library or brought them in from home❤️ @cfescolts

Today these fabulous firsties decorated bags that the food pantry will use to pass out Thanksgiving dinners. We were so excited to give back to our community. @cfescolts

September 11th. A day of remembrance 🇺🇸 Today I shared “The Man Who Walked Between the Towers.” My students loved this story of bravery & determination. Then I challenged them to create their own tower. The results were amazing! @cfescolts

@MrsDodsonVB @cfescolts Your kiddos brought joy to everyone that walked by your room!

@MinehanClass @cfescolts When a class set of flashlights comes in handy. We practiced using positional words! It was toasty but we made the most of it!

First Friday of First Grade was one for the books! Shout out to our amazing @cfescolts team that didn’t skip a beat. Power went out but learning, laughing and a very fun lunch continued.
