We Love Mrs. Schwartz!

Mrs. Schwartz read to the cubs on Pajama Day.  She is retiring after being the librarian at Copper Creek for 11 years.  We will miss her. She always helped the cubs find the books they wanted and recognized them with her magic wand every time they got 100% on an A.R. test. 

Bear Country's Checker Board Reindeer

Every child made a reindeer on Reindeer Day.  They also read a non-fiction book about reindeer, made a reindeer candle and listened to the book, The Wild Christmas Reindeer.

Two New Honors Readers from Bear Country


These two cubs earned enough points in the school's A.R. club to become Honors Readers.  We are very proud of them!

We've Started Preparing for the Play

The cubs were too busy to write for the blog this week.  We are putting on the play, How the Grinch Stole Christmas.  The parts are chosen, the practice has begun, and each child wrote a retelling of the book.  Here are some pictures that the children made of themselves as Whos.  I hope you enjoy them as much as we have.
