Centreville Olympics

Our class joined the rest of the elementary level to participate in Centreville Olympics!

London Underground

The past two days we have been working on our London Underground signs. We worked on following directions, circles, rectangles, and fine motor skills while painting our signs. 

Adding a little literary flare with Harry Potter's Platform 9 3/4 Tube sign.

We had a chance to play with our soccer balls that we made the other day and found we had our very own Alex Morgan (USA Women's Olympic Soccer Player) on our hands! Signature pink headband and all!

Fun Times!

Gooooooaaalll!

Today we worked with hexagons! Keeping with our Olympic theme (and one of Mrs. Burns' favorite sports) we made our own soccer balls out of balloons!

Happy Birthday!!

We celebrated our first birthday of the summer! Happy Birthday Ava!

Medals are Complete! & Olive Tree Crowns!

Our Medals are all finished! 

 We made Olive Tree Crowns in celebration of our Olympic Theme.

Going for Gold-Making Olympic Medals

Yesterday we began working on our Olympic Medals. We used this time to talk about the numbers "1", "2", and "3". We learned what it means to be "first", "second", or "third"; and we worked on our measuring skills. The project proved to be a messy one, but boy did we have fun! We made our medals out of salt dough and let them bake for 6 hours (opps...) but they turned out great!

Day One: Making the Medals:

Day Two: Painting Medals

Check back tomorrow to see our finished medals!
