Finishing First Grade...

We have had such a wonderful Spring in first grade.  Our days were filled with great themes such a life cycles of animals, egg exploration, beginning chapter books, directed drawings, story publishing, poetry and the THA Spring Musical.  We had a galloping good time at the FIRST EVER...THA Stick Horse Derby!!  We had to design, build and name our stick horse and we had to design our jockey jersey.  The creativity was spectacular and the races were so much fun.  We finished the derby with a fantastic tailgate party provided by our wonderful parents.  We are now planning for our end of the year pool party and field day.  We have had a great year in first grade!  Second grade be ready because we are all moving up!!!
