We enjoyed playing fraction bingo to practice our fraction skills! 

Sheep!  Tomato!  Bee!  That’s right.  Harward Farms had those and a whole bunch more!  It was Farm Field Days and the second graders visited the farm on Thursday.  We learned all about agriculture.  Students participated in several activities to help them understand how agriculture is part of our everyday lives.  They made a “living necklace”, learned about proper handwashing and the food groups, discovered Z.I.P (zinc, iron, protein) is in beef, learned about tractor safety and where the water we use in the valley comes from, what’s needed for plants

This is my fifteenth year teaching. I have been at Rees since the new school was built.  I have taught first through third grades and second grade is my favorite.  I am the oldest of 8 kids and grew up in Anaheim, California.  I love being an aunt and spoiling my niece and nephews.  I love to dance, take pictures, watch movings, look at the sky, bake cookies, and laugh with my family.

I like burgundy, but I don’t like tan.

I like pizza, but I don’t like lima beans.

Rees students have started the annual fundraiser for the American Heart Association.   Students will be collecting donations that will go directly to the heart association.  Packets were sent home with students on Tuesday.  They are due Friday, April 28th which will also be our jump-a-thon event.

First grades wheels day was a huge success!  Thanks to all of the students who worked hard to have good behavior in the month of March.

Congratulations Eagles on your fantastic job in the classroom!  Students of the month are: Bella Aragundi, Branson Kelsey, Prestyn Cunningham, Riley Tadd, Aubrie Johnson, Mason Grace, Rachel Vakalala, Eliotte Overall, Johnny Robles, Emanuel Vazquez, Easton Thompson, and Kamryn Martinson.

Also pictured are students who have recently earned a brag tag by passing off their addition or subtraction fast facts.  Great job!

First grades fantastic field trip to the Museum of Natural Curiosity at Thanksgiving Point. There was so much to do and explore: water, theater, animals, imaginitive play, building, and climbing just to name a few.

I am a wife and mother of three.  My children love their extra-curricular activities.  My boys wrestle and my daughter swims.  My husband and I love to watch and cheer them on.  I have previously taught second, but I love sixth!

I like all colors.

I like alfredo, but I don’t like onions.

I like wrestling, but I don’t like croquet.

I like bananas, but I don’t like blueberries.

I like sloths, but I don’t like bears.

To finish up their rock unit, Miss Williams' students got to try their hands at rock hounding. Students enjoyed digging for rocks and minerals. Students had to collaborate and work together to find 11 rocks and minerals and then identify each one during one of their fun Friday activities.
