We official kicked off the start of this fabulous program on Tuesday, October 7th. Students are asked to read 1 chapter of the book Friendship According to Humphrey each night with their families.
Every day at school students will have a chance to discuss the book with their classmates, friends, and school staff. There will be trivia questions, contests, and fun, fun, fun!

In art, while wrapping up their Nesting Dolls, students could draw their own hamster.
Below are some hamster drawings done by the 3rd grade

Four of my very good friends ran a marathon today, A MARATHON! CRAZY!
To make cheering on the runners even more fun, I made signs. My friend, Whit and I have a blast cheering everyone on! It was a great experience!
