Reindeer Games

To celebrate the upcoming holidays, we had a Reindeer Games party on Friday, December 20th. The students brought in all their favorite games and took turns teaching one another how to play! It was the perfect way to end our last day together before break!








Nancy Carlson Visits Falcon Ridge

Falcon Ridge got a VERY special visitor today! The author Nancy Carlson came to speak to the students! Nancy is the author of the books "I Like Me" and "Look Out Kindergarten, Here I Come." (As well as MANY other children's books!) She talked to the first graders about the importance of never giving up and to keep on practicing their passions! She also showed us how to draw some of the characters in her books!



Happy Birthday!

You're a MEAN one, MR. GRINCH!

To help get into the holiday spirit, we had GRINCH day in first grade! We learned all about the importance of giving, we made a LIFE SIZE Grinch, and we ended the day by watching The Grinch Whole Stole Christmas and drinking "Grinch Punch." It was such a wonderful, green, and grinch-y day!
