Christmas Book Challenge Complete!
The kids had fun creating their 2025 snapshots to share with everyone.
The kids painted motivational pictures of positive things that describe them with Ms. Ryan and some chose to hang them up with Mrs. Strode’s motivational one. They make this job the best one ever.
Today during the teachers' before school meeting, Ms. Ryan led the team in a social emotional activity to refocus our minds as we started back with students. Ms. Ryan posed the question "what sets you a part from others around you as a teacher?" After giving the teachers a mindful minute, they were asked to come up with words or phrases to describe themselves as teachers. Ms. Ryan explained that this artwork would provide a visual reminder of why we choose to be educators. As you can see, our Garfield crew enjoyed the fun, reflective activity.

Third grade students enjoyed decorating and eating sugar cookies during one of the holiday stations before winter break. 👨🍳👩🍳
Third grade students in Mrs. Wyland's/Mrs. Liska's class enjoyed seeing which group could make the tallest gum drop Christmas tree before the winter break.
Third grade students in Mrs. Wyland/Mrs. Liska's class enjoyed visiting with Santa and telling him all the gifts they hope he brings them. 🎅
Our "November and December Attendance Challenge" provided the opportunity for the top class in second and third grade to tape their teacher to a wall. This challenge was well received by both grade levels. The students in Mrs.Tierney's second grade class and Mrs. Liska's third grade class won the challenge. On the last day of school for the fall semester, they taped their teachers to a wall during lunch time. Our teachers are always willing to encourage good attendance and have a little fun while doing so. The "January Challenge" will be out soon.
Garfield had a family feast Thursday to celebrate Christmas.
Happy Holidays from Mrs. Strode's 2nd Grade Class!
Coen got on to Study Island for the second time this year! He has finished both KS programs and US programs second grade math topics. He is almost halfway through ELA as well. This young man works incredibly hard each day!
Students spent time reinforcing 2-digit addition skills by completing this 'roll a reindeer' activity and craft. They get a part of their reindeer with each correctly completed question. They made cute decorations for our hallway while also having fun practicing a skill.
Second graders decked the halls with festive evidence of their first semester learning! The bulbs have student names and kind words about each student. This class shines in so many ways! The cookies lift to reveal things they have learned so far in second grade.
Merry Christmas from Mrs. Tierneys class! We had a wonderful time visiting with Santa on Wednesday.
