National Poetry Month & Culture Fest

April is National Poetry Month, so I read poetry books to Pre-K thru 2nd grade.  For Pre-K, I read Me I Am! By Jack Prelutsky.  Kindergarten students got A Sock is a Pocket for Your Toes by Elizabeth Scanlon.  In First Grade, I read Dirt on My Shirt by Jeff Foxworthy and in Second Grade, I read Tie Your Socks and Clap Your Feet by Lenny Hort.



In grades 3 – 5, each group got started on their digital citizenship research.  They were looking for a definition of their topic and 3 – 5 important facts.  They will continue their research next week as well.

Last night was our annual Culture Fest and we had a wonderful turnout.  The staff worked tirelessly to make sure everything ran smoothly, but we couldn’t have done it without the help of all the families that contributed to make it such a success.  This is by far one of the biggest events that we hold each year.  We had a performance by Fourth Grade, families could experience the Taste of Christie and travel around the world with their passports to a variety of countries represented at Christie.  The exhibit table were phenomenal!  I heard so many positive comments and how they were looking forward to participating again next year.  Thank you again to all that helped to make this such an amazing experience for our students.
