Merry Christmas from Mrs. Knapp's class!


We enjoyed singing Christmas songs in our class all month.  We were even lucky enough to have the one and only Ben Gallagher play his new electric guitar for us.  It was a lot of fun!!  Happy New year, everyone!!

Yummy, Healthy Snacks!

We are lucky enough to have Miss Hussey come into our classroom and share some nutrition facts with us.  Each time she comes in, she shares important facts, and healthy foods with us.  She teaches us how to make healthy snacks at home.  In the past, we have learned how to make a peanut butter/banana snack,  pumpkin pie in a bag, and ants on a log (Celery, peanut butter, and raisins)....   Today, she shared a yummy smoothie recipe with us.

We can't wait to try them!

Computer Time!

Last week, we had the opportunity to work on the laptop computers in our classroom.  We partnered up with students from Mrs. Schmidt's class.  It was fun to look at different websites.

Brendon and Crosby are working well together!


                                        James, Raykwun, Carter and Ben are thinking hard!
