Spelling Bee Finalists!!!




We held our first spelling bee reviewing all spelling words thus far! These kids are doing awesome with looking for the phonics patterns in their words. High frequency words are also added each week. These "high frequency" words can be tricky, as many of them DO NOT follow the rules of phonics. We are proud of our fifth graders for working so hard! These pictures are of the students still standing when each class ended. Good job Guys!
(Notice the crazy hair!!!... It was indeed, "Use your head, and don't do drugs" day!" :)

Red Ribbon Week!!!




Last week was Red Ribbon Week! Each day students were able to dress up to celebrate being drug free! Part of the festivities included a door decorating contest. Class officers were in charge, and did an AWESOME job decorating them!!! Thanks for the fun week PTA! Ashley fifth graders know the importance of being DRUG FREE!!!!! :)
