Teams are nearing the southern tip of the island after day two of our challenge. Keep reading!!

And they're off!!! We've got a long journey ahead. Read lots of books to paddle your teams canoe to victory. Who will make it around the island fastest?

Hopefully your child showed you this letter today. One more reading challenge to finish off the year! Read, read, read!

I got a fun surprise on my door today! Thank you all (students and parents) for the wonderful cards, poems, flowers, goodies and treats, and a "All About Mr. Blackburn" book. The best thing about being a teacher of course, is the SUPER kids I get to work with!

Here are a few more pictures from our field trip that another chaperone e-mailed to me.  Thanks again to all the chaperones for making it a fun success!

 

 

Last Friday we went to visit the tide pools at old Kona airport beach.  I had a fantastic time and I think the kids did too!  A great big mahalo to all the chaperones that accompanied us on this field trip.  With your help, the students were very successful in finding many different  sea creatures.  Thank you so much for leading the students on such a fun tide pool adventure!  I apologize that I forgot to bring a camera so I do not have pictures of most of the students.  One of our chaperones e-mailed me a few pictures from their group.  Check them out below. Also, don't forget we have one more field trip on May 10!

 

 

 

 

 

We were lucky to have a special guest sharing his expertise on ocean life and tide pools today. He even brought a few tide pool regulars that we may see on our field trip. The students had the opportunity to handle some of the creatures.

Next week is our field trip! We need permission forms and $ turned in by tomorrow. If you are unable to come up with the $7 please let me know and I will get it taken care of.
