Thank you to Batter Up and Mr. Jason Windham. He teamed up with Mrs. Alston and Mrs. Thomasson’s classes again this year to celebrate word knowledge. The kids loved their fries for knowing their 1st 100 Fry words!
Mrs. Stewart’s class spent the week learning their standards through a book study with Humble Pie and wrapped it up today talking about Johnny Appleseed and making apple pie!
Mrs. Hutchins’ and Mrs. Moore’s class had so much fun learning all about apples this week! We explored the parts of an apple, learned about the life cycle of an apple, and put our taste buds to the test with an apple tasting activity! 🍎
Ms. Bryant and Mrs. Bohannon’s Pre-K friends had an appletastic day! 🍎 Our families generously donated everything we needed to make our Apple Fun Day a success. Students tasted red, yellow, and green apples and voted for their favorite. Red apples were the winner! ❤️ We also tried apple pie and made our own delicious apple treats. It was a fun day filled with tasting, creating, and learning!
👏 Help us give a BIG Westside congratulations to this week’s leaders! Keep up the great work—we are so proud of you! ⭐

This year, Westside is using Beanstack to encourage students to read. Make sure that you got the flyer that came home with more information and directions to download the app. Then you’ll be ready to start logging reading minutes at home. Even Kindergarten students can participate by listening to an adult read! Reading books to your child builds essential language skills, expands their vocabulary, and develops a love of reading.
