On Monday, February 1, 2016 the first grade classes celebrated the 100th day of school. 100 days of first grade has really aged us! We loved celebrating our 100th day of school and reflecting on how smart we've become! 

On February 2nd we learned about Groundhog's Day.  The students predicted if the groundhog would see his shadow or not and wrote a paper on it.  Then for math we made a picture graph of the predictions. The majority of my students predicted he wouldn't see his shadow and spring would come early. They were right! The groundhog didn't see his shadow, so we hope spring comes early this year.

The Pirate Pride assemblies have been such a fun school tradition this year. The captains of the month of January were Ms. White, Mrs. Broussard, and Mrs. Hall's classroom aides. They are great examples that everyone at Brookside can look up too. The crews of the month were: Mrs. Pulley's PM, Mrs. Gonzalez class, and Mrs. Hall's class.
