Spelling Bee

The 4th graders studied hard for the Spelling Bee ... and we had lots of fun having the first round in our classroom!

It was hard work and a lot of stress, but it was so good for them!


Our FINAL FOUR were Yunee, Andrew, Kunho, and Jay!


EVERYONE did a GREAT JOB!

Catching Up from February

It seems that time has been flying and I am so behind on adding to our classroom blog!

Here is a picture from Kunho's small birthday celebration at school.


These pictures are from our class Valentine's Day party.


We ate jajangmyeon and shared Valentine cards and candies with each other! I enjoy celebrating this holiday and everyone passing out valentines to the class! Of course, I also like Chocolate! :)

Welcome, Joshua and Kunho

We have added 2 new boys to our class in the last month, increasing our number of students to 14! With a more even split, there are now 6 boys and 8 girls.

Goodbye, Grace! We're Praying for You!

We had to say our first goodbye this year ... a lot earlier than we expected!

Grace is leaving CCS and we are so excited to see the wonderful God things is going to do with her life in the future!

We will miss her greatly, but we just want to say "Thank You" to God for letting us be part of her life!

We love you, Grace!

Celebrating Christmas Together

The last day of school before Christmas break we celebrated Christmas together! One of the first things we did was send the DOZENS of cookies we had made to the teachers and staff of CCS. Every student had the opportunity to deliver our goodies!

We also made some Christmas ornaments together and had a gift exchange.

No party is complete without food, and so we enjoyed a delicious lunch together that was prepared by some of the mothers in our class!

Thanks, Moms, for all your help!

Mrs. Dyck received some cards and gifts from the class, as well as tickets for her and Mr. Dyck to see JUMP and have dinner at OUTBACK! What a special treat!

I LOVE 4th Grade! :)

Christmas Baking!

WHAT FUN we had making sugar cookies together!



Mrs. Cha, Mrs. Jang, and Mrs. Yoo came in to help us and we had such a great time!


We made cookies in the shapes of snowmen, gingerbread men, stars, Christmas trees, angels, bells, and reindeer!


After HOURS of baking the cookies were wrapped and given to the staff and teachers of CCS - hand delivered by every student!


Merry Christmas to all!

Playing Board Games

We read a story last week called "Stealing Home" by Mary Stoltz. In the story, the main character, Thomas, enjoys playing board games with his grandfather.


Many students brought in some board games last Friday and enjoyed playing games with each other!

Thank you, God, for giving us ...

This past week we have been focusing on giving thanks for all the wonderful blessings God has given us!

I am particularly thankful for this class ... what a blessing they are to me!

Making Caramel Apples

We carefully unwrapped 2 kilo's of caramels and placed them into a crock pot for the afternoon ...

then we dipped our apples in the smooth, creamy caramel!

What a sticky, tasty treat!

Happy Fall!

Pepero Day!

Although it's not that important of a holiday, we enjoyed sharing some yummy treats with our friends on November 11th, Pepero Day!

I'm pretty sure EVERYBODY was happy! Especially Mrs. Dyck!
