World Read Aloud Day

Thursday, February 16, 2017 is World Read Aloud Day. This is a day to take action on behalf of the 758 million people who can not read. It is sponsored by LitWorld. Mrs. Burroughs shared information with us that led us to a list of authors that volunteered their time to skype with schools around the nation. How cool!!

As I was scrolling through the authors names I recognized one that we have in our classroom library, Dianne White, the author of Blue on Blue. I was able to reach out and connect with Dianne and she agreed to skype with us on World Read Aloud Day at 12pm! Here is the link to her website http://diannewrites.com/.

We are thrilled and honored that she will be taking time out of her day to share in our common love of books and reading!

For the next month we will be reading the book many times, creating our own book inspired by Blue on Blue and preparing questions to ask Dianne when we skype. If you have any questions or would like to join us please let me know! It is sure to be an exciting moment for us!

I wish everyone a peaceful long weekend.

Love,

Miss Brehm

Day TWO!

Day two is truly wonderful! We have so much fun together! Today we started working on our first classroom book and WOW it's going to be AMAZING! So many beautiful illustrators and creative thinkers in this class. Also today we completed our first of many Math and Writing rotations. It's been a busy busy busy day! Now to the fun stuff. It's always said that pictures speak much louder than words and I agree 100%. So here are the pictures from our magnificent day TWO! Right after lunch we went outside to explore our school garden with Nurse Amy! We picked marigold seeds which we are going to plant in our classroom! Check out all the fun we had! It was a busy day indeed, but so much fun! I can't wait for tomorrow! Love, Miss Brehm

We're Back!

Welcome back!! We are jumping right back in! (We only have 35 days of school left!) CRAZY! This morning we practiced our whole school morning meeting! The whole class is really excited for tomorrow! If you are able to join us tomorrow. Please meet us in the cafeteria at 7:45 AM. If you are not able to join us no worries Mr. Bouchard will film the morning meeting and I will post it to our blog! We are really really excited! At lunch we celebrated in our classroom due to the downpour of rain! We had fun pushing the tables together and eating in the classroom! A fun treat to celebrate our kindness and respectfulness! So happy to be back and can't believe we have only 35 days left! I wish you well! Love, Miss Brehm

In honor of my momma, Katrina Brehm, I am running a marathon. Crazy, I know. I got it from her. In Mom’s memory, my goal is to raise enough money to send a child to @camptakumta ! Please take a moment to check out the link in my bio and if you’re able to, give any amount. Thank you ☀️
