Booking With the Pack: We won for the second year in a row. The winners of this school wide competition get an incredible field trip to the NCSU Basket Ball game and several other amazing rewards.
 
Guest Speakers: Thank you  Mrs. Florian! She  graciously came in to talk to the students about writing, and technology. She even allowed our students to be one of the first to test out an incredible new writing site whatifbag.com.

Field Trips and Team Celebrations:

Looking ahead we have several field trips coming up and our monthly Character/birthday team celebrations!

Imax:  Our first field trip to A Christmas Carol at the IMAX theater went wonderfully!  This of course links directly with the short novels and plays we will be doing close to winter break.

Kanki: Our next field trip will be in December 11th. We will be exploring the Asian culture by visiting Kanki to immerse ourselves in Asian cuisine!
NC Zoo:  Our final field trip will be in March to the NC Zoo! We will be exploring the African continent. As with the other field trip we will need both parent volunteers and financial contributions to cover the cost of the trip for children who have been hurt in these hard economic times.
 
 
 Homework: Have you been wondering about Homework? Your just in luck! Here is the homework for the YEAR!  Please click on RLP ( on the side) for Language Arts, and Current Event ( on the side) for Social Studies.
Support The Lions: If your looking for a way to help we are still in need of parent helpers and LOTS of copy paper. If you can volunteer your time we just the place for you! Don’t have time? We sure could use help with donations of either copy paper, pencils, or cupcakes and drinks for our character celebration. If you can help in any way please email me and let me know!
