We Are the Champions!


It was a tough battle, but in the end, Mrs. Owen's class proved we are the best at fairy tale trivia!

The Fairy Tale Brain Brawl has been a tradition for third graders at Springwood for over twenty years! This group of third graders kept the tradition alive by dressing up as their favorite fairy tale characters, and showing what they know about all of the fairy tales we have studied over the past month. We had lots of fun! Here are a few more pictures from our day:

After our big win!
On a sad note, Ms. Yori's last full day at Springwood was today. She has been very busy going to engineering school at night, and teaching school during the day. However, this semester, her schedule forced her to leave before the year was over.

As a surprise, we sneaked down to Ms. Yori's room and write some "We'll miss you," and "Good luck with college" messages to her as a surprise.

We had to crawl so she wouldn't see us through her windows!

She loved it when she came out and saw it!
