If You Give A Turkey a Tater Tot

If you give a turkey a tater tot...
He'll ask for some ketchup to go with it.


Then he will also want mustard.
Seeing the yellow makes him think of the sun.
He'll want to go to the beach.


He will ask you to pack his bathing suit.
Looking for his suit, he will find swimming shoes.
Once he's packed, he will hop into the car.
But the car will break down.
He gets out of the car and sees the sidewalk.


Now he wants to go for a sprint.
After his run, he will need ice cream to cool down.
Having ice cream, will make him want chocolate chips.
Chocolate chips will make the turkey think of dirt.


Now he wants to get dirty, he will go to the park.
At the park, he will go to the pool.
The pool is closed, but will remind him he needs a bath.
He needs a clean towel.


So he goes to the bedroom.
In his room, he sees his bed.
He decides to jump on his bed.


He slips and gets a scratch.
The red makes him think of ketchup.

And chances are... if you give a turkey ketchup,
He will want a tater tot to go with it.

Veterans Day

We wrote letters to Veterans to show them our appreciation for their service to our country. 
The "We Salute You" Board is amazing!  We love to slow down to look at all the brave men and women who have served in the different armed forces for our country.

Mystery Readers

Today, we were lucky to have two Mystery Readers in! In the morning, Mrs. Thompson (Kellie's mother) came in to read and in the afternoon we had Mrs. Lopez (Javier's mother).  





If you are interested in becoming a Mystery Reader, please email me to schedule a day.  Thank you!




Ealy House

What a gorgeous day for a walking Field Trip to the Ealy House!  This kicks off our "Long Ago" theme in Social Studies.  Thank you to our parents that could help out!  It was very interesting to think about how different life was like over 150 years ago in New Albany.

Final Football Friday

Our two New Albany football players made their final visit with the class on Friday.  After the last reading, they answered many questions from the students and left with a high-five line out the door!  We will miss our players and really enjoyed our Friday's with them.

We are very lucky to have Mrs. O'Connor teaching our class some sign language this year! Students have learned a few words and the alphabet A-L.
