Literacy Month Continues!

Submitted by tori.bennett on

Last Friday the students and teachers came to school in their PJ's and had an opportunity to relax and read! The kids enjoyed having some free time to spread out and read.  Next Friday the students will be bringing flashlights and taking some time to read in the dark.  Thanks to our PTA for planning these fun Literacy activities.  Keep working on BINGO cards and turning in Literacy Slips!

Farewell to Mr. Morse

Submitted by tori.bennett on

On Friday we will say goodbye to our Head Custodian, Mr. Quinton Morse.  Mr. Morse has been at Hobble Creek for the past four years and is moving to another position in the district.  The faculty and staff presented Mr. Morse with some treats and tools and a big thank you!  Mr. Morse has been the quiet guy behind the scenes keeping our school clean and safe so we have a great learning environment for students and teachers.  We will miss Mr. Morse and wish him well in his new position.

THANK YOU MR. MORSE!

Submitted by tori.bennett on

Monday morning students were greeted by teachers and staff who were dressed up as their favorite book characters!  This was the kick off for our Literacy Month, sponsored by the PTA!  There are lots of fun activities planned that will promote literacy throughout the month.  Literacy is not JUST about reading. "Literacy is the ability to Read, Write, Spell, Listen and Speak"  Students have the opportunity to win prizes through random drawings by completing literacy activities.

Submitted by tori.bennett on

 

This month our kindergarten celebrated 100 days of school.  The students decorated special crowns, and had a variety of  "100" themed activities, treats and decorations!  All that counting and celebrating must have taken a toll on our kindergarteners....they seemed to age to 100 years!  Check out just a few of our 100 year old kindergarteners.
