Congratulations Kayla and Lorenzo For Achieving Honors Reader

We had an absolutely fabulous Valentine's Day party which included:

• the classroom was decorated with balloons and streamers
• the students were given a carefully wrapped shoe box and they creatively decorated them with all sorts of goodies - Mr. Floore wasn't allowed to wrap a shoe box due to his poor wrapping skills
• each student received a festive fortune cookie box with positive comments from every student in the class; Mr. Floore received one too
• the students delivered their Valentine's cards
• the students had pop, candy, pastries, chips, cookies, pop corn (we had a real pop corn machine)
• we played pictionary - fourth grade won
• prizes were given out
• we voted for the best dressed outfit for a Valentine's party - Kelsey won
• we played the name game; each student had to find out who they were and who was their counterpart
• the kids danced with the lights out and the strobe lights on; a group of fifth graders sang together following the song "Eye of the Tiger"
• thanks to all the parents who helped make this possible

The Bohnencamps donated an autographed U of A basketball for our carnival basket.
