Two Hoots and a A Holler

Hoot#1

This week we had a special guest come to our classroom to read. LITTLE MISS MISSISSIPPI!!!!!  We are always glad when someone wants to come read to us, but when royalty asks, we do not turn them down! We are very grateful that Emma Kate, Little Miss Mississippi, chose us! Emma Kate is a 4th grade student at our school. She brightens our halls everyday! Thank you again for coming!

Hoot #2

This week we have been doing what we love to do...giving back to our community. Our Community includes St. Jude. It is just 30 minutes from us.  St. Jude is having a benefit on September 23rd. The outpouring of support that our students have shown has touched my heart tremendously. Our goal was to raise $1000. We started with "Change for a Cure." Students were asked to bring any loose change to put in their grades bottle.

We also had "Cupcakes for a Cure." The students purchased cupcakes provided by our staff for $.50. We sold over 400 cupcakes! What a wonderful team effort from teachers and students.  We still have tomorrow to collect change and we will serve cupcakes again next week, but we are proud to say that we have raised over $1100 for St. Jude and their patients.

Walls Gators love St. Jude!!

This Week's Holler...

This week's holler goes out to Jennifer Hamilton at "A Dab of Glue Will Do." She has stuff for every theme that you can imagine. She also has her own TPT store. But, if science is what you are looking for, then Jennifer is your girl. We love her Blood Model Cell experiment! I think that we will be doing this with out house in October! Thanks for sharing Jennifer.
