What a Trip!

About seven years ago (okay not really, but it has been nearly a week and a half ago), our class went on our very first field trip as second graders! Thanks to the Jasper movie theater, each student was given a great deal on a movie ticket to see Dolphin Tale 2, a box of popcorn and a drink all for $6!

The students were so excited because we had spent the days leading up to the field trip watching Winter (the name of the dolphin in the movie) on the live web cams at Clearwater Marine Aquarium. Your family can watch from home by visiting here.

Needless to say, the students both enjoyed the movie and our roadside picnic afterwards. Here's a glimpse into our time together:

 Can you tell it was super, duper hot?!

A big shout out goes to parent chaperones Kelly Fields, Blair Stinchfield, and Shelby McDannald for coming along and helping as well! And while I'm thanking people, I'd also like to thank each and every parent that has a student in my class...you guys have done an AMAZING job raising such FABULOUS children. They make my job super sweet! 

And one more thing! Today, our librarian came in and announced our class' "Reader of the Week" and it was.....drum roll please......

Miss Haddie!

Every week a different reader from our class will be chosen and I will do my best to post the exciting information here on the classroom blog. 

Thanks again for letting me have the chance to teach such excellent students and please, please, please keep on supporting your student!

And just because I'm keeping count - Fall Break is only 10 days away!! We can do this!
