Eye Dropper Art!

In Miss Amanda's room the students did a fine motor activity using a coffee filter, eye dropper, and food coloring water. The students had so much fun squeezing colored water onto their snowman coffee filter and watching as it changed from white to different colors! See the pictures of how awesome their colorful snowmen are! They make great window clings too!

Welcome!

Welcome to your new classroom at Johnson Elementary! This first week has been awesome with the students transitioning into a new classroom as well as meeting new friends! On the second day everyone wanted to stay in the classroom and not visit their old classrooms, which is a great since it shows the students love the new environment! I will be posting blogs as well as pictures about what we do throughout our morning in our classroom!

Looking ahead into the month of January: 
                  Jan. 16 - No School Professional Development Day for Teachers
                  Jan. 30 - No School Professional Development Day for Teachers

If anyone has any questions or concerns you may contact me by email or by calling the school as well. My email address is: ahinners@spencerschools.org
