Mrs. Woodyard's Christmas party! It was a blast!

Mrs. Woodyard started a tradition when she started teaching with her students every year of making wreaths with the help of Melva Sanner and Mrs. Hogan. Ms. Jayne was able to join in on the fun also! After the wreaths we watched the new Grinch movie!

Mrs. Woodyard's class cleaning out their classroom pets and watching them while the turtles while their homes were being cleaned.

Mrs. Woodyard's class had a fun day this week by doing a directed drawing of the Grinch, playing at recess, and reading their fun writing about what they would do if they lived at the North Pole!

Fourth graders participated in their 3rd annual Business Fair. These students visited local businesses, had local businesses come in and do a presentation, and studied data to develop their own business. There were 10 vendors at the Business Fair selling drink/food items, bookmarks, slime, legos, hair bows, and even a tattoo shop. It was very successful as many of them sold out of their product. Enjoy the pictures!

The fourth graders had an opportunity to compete in an ugly sweater contest. Which is your favorite ugly sweater?
