I was born in Utah, but grew up in New Zealand and Idaho. I am married and have six kids and 3 grandchildren! I love anything outdoors, especially canoeing, hiking and shooting. I love to read historical novels and picture books and I love old movies. My favorite thing to do on stormy days is to bake and do family history!
I like aqua blue, pink and yellow.
I like chicken cordon bleu, but I don’t like anything with eggplant.
We are learning how to count to 120 and about place value in first grade. Here are some pictures of our class using counters to count by tens and ones.

In first grade we have been learning about facts vs. opinion. To help us learn what facts are, each of us wrote a report about penguins.
The last two weeks have been busy for the first, second, and third graders at Rees Elementary. Each student has been learning about an art form of their choice – visual arts, musical theater, dance, or drumming – with the help of a professional artist. Friday afternoon was performance day! Thanks to the parents who have helped practice and create at home. We are so lucky to have this wonderful experience!
Second-graders have been learning to tell time using a.m. and p.m.! In Ms. Dekker's class students were shown a picture of an event. Using the clues in the picture (what are the people doing, how much light is outside), students wrote a time on their whiteboard that made sense. When Ms. Dekker said, "Show me" students walked to the left or right side of the room to show if their answer was a.m.
