Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Today was a fun day! A LOT of people at Kennedy School wore green.

First, when we came into school this morning, there was a leprechaun in the lobby! She was dancing around. Then she came up to our room and danced with some kids, right here. We figured out it was Mrs. Bradley!

We got to vote on how we want to use our bonus points using the class clickers and the Smart Board. We voted on an ice cream party. Stay tuned for a request for donations!

We also got to use the clickers to answer some survey questions for the student council.

Then, we shared how to put the penny on our leprechaun. Rory showed us how to take the string off the leprechaun and Bekah showed us how to put it back on. It was harder than we thought it would be.

After that, we gave our speeches. Everyone did a great job pretending to be a leprechaun!

Then we got to have our GOLD MEDAL recess! What a beautiful day for an extra recess.

When we came in from recess, we finished our speeches, did some reading and then social studies.

During lunch recess it was so nice out. Some people learned some jump rope tricks from Mrs. Merten.

After recess, we did a little bit of writing and then we all went into the gym to learn an Irish Step Dance from Mrs. MacMurray. The leprechaun (a.k.a. Mrs. Bradley) joined us too!

The day was topped off with VERY LITTLE HOMEWORK! Enjoy the nice weather.
