Hi how are you doing? Christmas time is coming soon and Jasper a kindergartener is excited he said, “that he is looking forward to opening presents and being with his family this christmas.” That is enough about Christmas let’s talk about Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving has just passed but the memory lives on forever. Colin one of the kindergarteners said, “that he is thankful for his family.” After a long hard thought Jocelyn said she was, “thankful for her friends at school.” As you all know the trimester has just ended, 60 days of school gone. Where did the time go? Mrs.McCarthy said her favorite thing this trimester was when they worked with pumpkins.They got to see if they would float and how many seeds were in them. This is Dakota Voortman and Sophia Thompson signing off as kindergarten reporters.
The first and second grade class are mostly focusing on the class robots (Dash). Some of the kids are going to a board meeting and will show a demonstration. They are learning about Reindeer and Caribou. The second graders are working on a powerpoint on Caribou. And the first graders are working on a report about Reindeer. They are getting ready for the holidays. For the Christmas Program they will be singing and dancing to “Peppermint Candy Cane”. -Carter
Hey Pawprints Press’ readers! Everyone is very excited about getting out of School for Thanksgiving. The teachers are looking relieved by the end of the day. They are quite hard working. For the anual Christmas program the 3rd and 4th graders are playing a song on the recorders. They have been learning time tables, they’ve also been learning about the Native Americans. The anual Knights Ferry School Christmas Program is coming up on December 15. The 3rd and 4th graders were deciding between Jingle Bell Rock and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. They eventually decided on Ruldoph the Red Nosed Reindeer. I personally hope they wear little red noses and antlers, but I want to see for myself how that goes so Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and a happy new year to you all, River McCarthy.
In the month of November the fifth and sixth grade class was preparing for a trip to Sutter’s fort. They picked a character from Sutter’s Fort and did a report about a person who lived at the fort. Vincent Peterson’s character was Benjamin Kelsey and Deagan Sweet’s character was John Sutter. All the 5th and 6th graders had to get a costume for the fort. When they got to the fort they arrived in a wagon train and did the jobs they would do at that time in history. They cooked all the food for dinner and breakfast and left the next day.
Mrs.Kelly is recovering from Sutter’s Fort the 5th and 6th graders are trying to get back to math and reading. Everyone in really exited for getting out on winter break and getting to Christmas.
This month the holidays are bringing joy to the ⅞ grade class. They are all very excited. Seth said a tradition he does is they invite family members to his house for a Christmas meal. Sophia said she usually goes to her grandparents house and has a meal with them. She also said she stays the night with her cousins. Sophia loves being with her family during the holidays. The ⅞ grade class was so excited to help out with the Thanksgiving meal. The students baked four turkeys, lots of stuffing, mash potatoes, and a lot of pumpkin pie. Then we served the community, which was very fun! This is Dakota Voortman who this month wrote the ⅞ grade paper.
Last thursday the Community Club had a great Christmas meal. We collected a lot of donations for people in need. The high school choir came and sang for us. They were very, very good. There was a lot of great food. My favorite was the turkey and mashed potatoes with gravy. The desserts were really good too. They had chocolate cake,cookies,brownies,cheesecake and a lot more delicious items. They sang a lot of songs like Mary Did You Know. This month Dakota was writing this article.
