More than 100 second grade students and friends attended the Second Grade-Senior Social at PPS tonight! A great wrap up to our American Heart Association fundraiser! Everyone got to rotate through 4 different activities. Thanks for coming out on a cold and rainy night!
PPS has begun their One School, One Book program! We are all reading the same book together, Fenway and the Bone Thieves. Families read at home and we have Mystery Readers from our staff reading on the Morning Show! This will run the whole month long!
Shark Attack! To celebrate the end of Q2 and the 100th Day of School students came to the gym for a game with Mrs. Deaver and other staff! The “lifeguards” had to save “swimmers” before the “sharks” got them! Lots of fun! ALOHA!
Second graders kicked off their American Heart Challenge with a morning of jumping rope! They are just getting warmed up for a great month of fundraising for the AHA ❤️❤️ Thanks to Mrs. Deaver and all the parents who came to jump and/or turn ropes today!
A magical evening with our Kindergarteners and their families! Thanks to Ms. Ferris and the PPS staff for putting together this show for a PACKED house!
In our most recent story with Mrs. Green, Lady Pancake and Sir French Toast, Margaret correctly figured out the meaning of the Wednesday Word, which was SLATHERED. Great job, Margaret! 🎉
Just a few photos from our high school visitors today! We had members of several PHS sports teams come and read to our classrooms in celebration of Read Aloud to a Child Week! Thanks Mrs. Green and Mrs. Yarborough for coordinating this event…we loved it! @PoquosonHS
PPS students and staff had an A-MOO-ZING time with Clover during our Mobile Dairy Farm visit today! Thanks Ms. Megan for teaching us about dairy cows and the importance of getting our 3 servings of dairy every day! #southlanddairyfarms
Jackson used his context clues and correctly defined the word “hitch” from A Spider Named Itsy. This is a fractured nursery rhyme…we hope our parents will check out more books like these at our public library and read them at home! Ask the librarian for help finding them! 🥰
“Collision”, from the newly published The Dictionary Story, was Mrs. Green’s Wednesday Word last week, and Evan guessed its meaning correctly using his context clues! Hurrah! 🎉🎉
The Book Fair has arrived! Students are taking a book fair browse and making their wish lists in library! Please join us for our family night on Tuesday from 5:00-7:00. Can’t make it? Students can shop Tuesday through Friday morning!
Wednesday’s Word was “bickering” in the story The Rain Came Down. Hooray Alexis! We heard your class cheering for you all the way down the hall! Hip hip hooray! 🎉🎉
Kindergarten friends in Ms. Richardson’s room practiced shapes during math centers. Today they chose shapes to make with playdoh, geoboards, and, yes…spaghetti!
Trey was our weekly winner for our Wednesday Word of the Week. The word was “whirling” in the book, Secret Engineer: How Emily Roebling Built the Brooklyn Bridge. Hooray Trey! 🎉
Got Cheerios, toothpicks and playdoh?! You too can practice place value! Love the multi-sensory, hands on learning in Ms. Craft’s second grade classroom today!
Here is our first winner for the weekly vocabulary word on the Read all the Books Morning show. She gave the correct definition of “quills” from the mentor text My School Stinks by Becky Scharnhorst. Great job Teagan! 🎉🎉📚📚
Mary Earle Stallings and Pam Hebert dropped off school supplies to PPS this week, by way of a donation from the ETA chapter of Alpha Delta Kappa, an international honor society of teachers! Thank you so much for your donation!
