I know I am thankful for lots of things in my life, but this year I am especially thankful for my 3rd and 4th grade class. I am blessed each school day with this wonderful class. To celebrate Thanksgiving we read the Thanksgiving story, each told of something we are thankful for, and eat some pumpkin pie.

Congratulations on Warm Fuzzy Party

After 3 months of hard work I would like to congratulate my 3rd and 4th graders for earning their first warm fuzzy party". The theme for our party was "Game Day". We had all kinds of games board game, portable games, and WI we hooked up to the TV. I would like to thank Olivia Smith 4th grades mom for bringing in the WI and hooking it up for us, and Moriah's mom for donating some drinks for the day. Enjoy some of the pictures of our day of games. My favorite is the video of our Jordan playing WI Cheer. It was his idea that I post it on the website. You might need to pause the music player at the bottom the screen to hear video.

Operation Christmas Child

For the second year in a row BCA took part in the "Operation Christmas Child" charity. We spend weeks collecting, organizing, and wrapping up our shoe boxes to send across the world to needy children. Our school collected over 80 boxes for this great cause. The following are pictures of our class decorating the shoe boxes for all the donations.

Learning Fractions

The other day we had a lesson on learning fractions. We used different colored sour gummy worms to separate into groups of fractions for each color. As you can see they had a blast learning all the while. The only negative was the sugar rushes during the rest of math class.
