We want to give a big shout out to the students who have completed Kindergarten Zearn and are now beginning 1st grade Zearn lessons! This is a huge accomplishment that shows their hard work and dedication to learning math. Congratulations to Shank Henigan, Jensen Johnson, Jackson Haltom, Heidi Chaffin, and Wyatt Bynum from Ms. Isbell’s Class.
Next, we want to recognize the students who can count all the way to 100! This is an exciting milestone in kindergarten math, and we are so proud of their effort and practice. Way to go to Ann-Michelle Bird, Heidi Chaffin, and Kaleb Gray from Ms. Isbell’s Class, and Sawyer Tanner from Mrs. Robyn’s Class.
Finally, we want to celebrate the students who know their first 25 sight words! Learning sight words helps students become strong readers, and these students have worked hard to reach this goal. Congratulations to Heidi Chaffin from Ms. Isbell’s Class and Myles Lopez from Mrs. Robyn’s Class. Way to go, students!
