We had a very special day today! In the morning we went to West End to learn about history from a cowboy! Yes, a cowboy from New Jersey. He sung many songs to us and we sang and clapped along. He started with "This Land is Your Land" which is one of our favorite songs! It reminded us of Ms. Savage and music class. Then we learned how to yodle! And, might I add, we have some excellent yodlers in the classroom - Kavon and Ayanna! We were surprised to learn that this cowboy had visited 48 of the 50 states and we all sang "I've Been Everywhere" with him!
We celebrated St. Patrick's Day this afternoon by making Irish Potatoes! We rolled them into small potatoes then rolled them in cinnamon. Next was the best part! We all tasted the Irish Potatoes! And, guess what??? Everyone in the whole class liked them! After we ate the Irish potatoes we did a little bit of school work then had an impromptu party. Selena and her mom brought in cupcakes, Doritos, and juice for us! We enjoyed the nice fresh air and played outside! It was a great day, but we are ready to get back to work tomorrow!

Mrs. Birkhead's class at Evergreen Elementary School will update our community on our learning and thoughts throughout the year. We have a unique class composed of second and third grade students. This makes for a extremely differentiated classroom.
