We Performed at First Gathering Around Flagpole



Our class kicked off the new school year with a presentation on all the new things we expect to accomplish month by month. Sophie demonstrates how to do a handstand.

Here's the script we used.

Another school year begins and we have big plans to try new things.

By the end of this month we plan to all know how to set these magic rings twirling.


(Taylor M. has got the right touch)

Our teacher calls it his “Olympic Ring Thing.” He doesn’t remember where or when he got it.

Also by the end of August we all will know how to play chess. Those who already play are teaching the rest of us.

In September our teacher will show us how to play backgammon. He has over 25 different backgammon games.

This October we will memorize and recite a really long poem about Paul Revere’s Ride for Poetry in the Park.

In November we will be preparing for the National Geographic Bee that is held in December.

It’s learn to yo-yo time in December……we’ll be “walking the dog” and going “round the world” by vacation.

It’s show time in January. We’re going to learn about jazz and perform “We Haz Jazz” one more time.

For February’s Presidents Day we plan to learn all the names in order from Washington to Obama.

Thomas knows how to draw in 3D, so by March we hope he helps us all learn how.

Gymnast Sophie can do handstands and cartwheels. By April so will we.

By May we will know all the states by heart from Maine to Hawaii.

And we’ll know ten new songs.

And Mr. Hughes….what new things are you going to learn?

So what are your new school year plans?
