And now the end is near...

We say thank you to the first grade learners!   Now, it is time to REST!
Field Day


This week we have had summer birthdays, May birthdays, buddy get together, field day, reading at the beach, farewell chapel from second graders, and our farewell party for Eva!  All the first graders said such nice things about Eva being a good friend, talented, smart, funny, and always thinking about others.  Good luck in Columbia!  We will miss you...
In place of Literacy Learning the students this week did many different end of the year activities and learned about limericks.   We interviewed a friend and did a portrait of that person.   We put all of our poems from the two weeks together in a nice book.  All these things have come home in the backpacks, so unload their treasures.

“Whose Child Is This?”

“Whose child is this?” I asked one day

Seeing a little one out to play

“Mine” said the parent with a tender smile

“Mine to keep a little while

To bathe her hands and comb her hair

To tell her what she is to wear

To prepare her that she may always be good

And each day do the things she should.”

 

“Whose child is this?” I asked again

As the door opened and someone came in

“Mine” said the teacher with the same tender smile

“Mine, to keep just for a little while

To teach her how to be gentle and kind

To train and direct her dear little mind

To help her live by every rule

And get the best she can from school.”

 

“Whose child is this?” I asked once more

Just as the little one entered the door

“Ours” said the parent and the teacher as they smiled

And each took the hand of the little child

“Ours to love and train together

Ours this blessed task forever!”
