Huge thank you to the Husky Cross Country team today! They helped us finish our Cross Country unit by leading groups on a run outside around the school. The best part was the energy the kids had in their breakdown at the end. Good luck to them today as they compete in O'Neill.
Our Husky Spotlight is on Mr. Osborne!
Thanks for all you do for our school, Mr. Osborne. We appreciate you!

IN PRE-K MAGNIFYING GLASSES ARE NOT JUST FOR SCIENCE! Magnifying glasses helped us search for letter Ll's in our "Mary Had a Little Lamb" rhyme/song. We ended this activity by adding "fleece as white as snow" to our lamb.
The 4th Grade class has been creating writing journals. They created covers that matched their personality, dedicated their journal to someone, and drew a treasure map that will guide them to writing a personal narrative!

Phonological awareness is the ability to recognize and work with sounds in spoken language. It is the foundation for learning to read.
Students with strong phonological awareness can: - rhyme; - count syllables; - recognize sounds alone and in words; - add, remove, and substitute sounds in words; - break words into their different sounds and blend them back together; and - isolate sounds.
Here are a few activities for Phoneme practice :
□ Give your child a list of three words and ask him/her to identify which two begin with the same sound. Example: “Which words begin with the same sound: paper, pickle, or dish?”
□ While out, name different items you see. Ask your child to tell you the first sound heard in each word you give. After your child can successfully tell you the beginning sound, have him/her tell you the last sound. Examples: “What is the first sound in road?” “/r/” “What is the ending sound in road?” “/d/”
□ Create a list of words that can be changed by adding a letter sound. Example: ice becomes nice when you add “n”. Read a word from the list and ask your child to repeat the word. Then, ask your child to add the new letter sound to the word and say the word altogether. Example: https://youtu.be/RPlxbRF52rM
□ Read “There’s a Wocket in My Pocket” aloud to your child. While reading, pause to talk about how the first sound of different words is changed to make a silly word in the book. Example: https://youtu.be/NjP0k9p0MpE
□ Ask your child to write a simple word, like cat. Then, ask them to change the first letter to form a new word, like bat. Keep changing letters to form new words. Each time you change a letter, ask your child to write the new word. Example: https://youtu.be/j_8DJLn0aPQ
