Boosterthon

Hey Parents,
The Roberts PTA Fundraiser this fall is Boosterthon. The Boosterthon team comes by daily and talks about a word for the day. Then they hand out prizes to the students who received pledges. The PK classes will run laps (1/16 of a mile) on September 1st.  Please support our PTA and this great fundraiser. Come by September 1st for the big event! Hope to see YOU there!

August Birthday Celebration

Brooke Bergfeld is the only Monkey who has a birthday in August. Today we celebrated her birthday. We hope Brooke had a GREAT birthday!!

Goopy Goop

Today our class made Goopy Goop. Ingredients? Cornstarch and water. Our class voted and since majority rules, our Goop is yellow. After we made the Goop we had a discussion about how it felt.
Check out our graph outside our classroom door.

Math and Manipulatives

A few pics of the class putting together puzzles and playing with manipulatives. Fun while learning.

Monkeys 2011-2012

Ms. Dortch and I welcomed 19 new students this morning. We loved getting to know them. Wetold them our school is called Roberts Elem. and our class is called the Monkeys. We saw the dining room and the playround today. Tomorrow we will go on  a scavenger hunt to find the office, nurse's office, library music room, art room and the gym.

Today I took pictures of the class while they slept. They looked like angels. :)

Ready Set Go

Tomorrow is the first day of school for the 11-12 school year. On Thursday August 11th I met the new group who will be in our class this year. Ms Dortch and I are very excited to see them again tomorrow the the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL. :)
Check back tomorrow for an update. We know this year will be great!

I Miss My Monkeys

Today is July 13th. I only have 23 more days until I go back to Roberts to start a new school year. I received a text today from April Null. It is a picture of Eliza Jane at the top of Pinnacle Mountain! Seeing her sweet face made me happy and sad. I still miss my kids. Seeing her picture opened the flood gate of my mind and now I have memories rolling in of all the great times we had last year. Of course, I have misty eyes too! :) 
What will this new year bring? Thankfully Ms. Dortch will be back, she is feeling much better.
I will be watching the double doors in the Pre-K area to see if I see a Monkey from last year going to their new kindergarten room!
Good luck to my kids I know you will all do well and learn so much next year!!
Love and Miss You,
Ms. Jefferson
