You Can Do It

I don't know who wrote this, but I love it!

You Can DO IT!

You are very special, and I want you to know,
I loved being your teacher; and it’s hard to see you go.
Though our time together this year, has come quickly to an end,
I will remember you forever, my dear first grade friend.
As you continue your journey, you will learn and grow,
Please carry these words I give to you, wherever you may go:
Always do your best, no matter how hard it seems.
And if you do, I promise, you will reach your dreams.
Remember to tell yourself, “I CAN do it”, because I know you can;
Think of all you’ve learned since school first began.
Reading, Writing and Math; I know weren’t always fun,
But I am so proud of you for all that you have done.
You will continue learning as you move from grade to grade,
Keep in mind and think about the progress you have made.
If you feel like giving up – - keep trying, you’ll make it through.
I know this, for once long ago, I was a student just like you.
I had special teacher who taught me something, too;
And throughout this year I’ve tried to teach it to you:
Always believe in yourself and know that it is true;
You will see, you can do anything you set your mind to.
So, as time goes by, you may forget certain things about the first grade
Like the stories we read and the games that we played
But there’s one thing I hope you remember your whole life through,
It’s to know that you CAN do it, and Miss Snapp believes in you.

Ravenclaw trip

The Ravenclaw house had the most points at the end of the year and were awarded a big party!
After running through the brick wall at Platform 9 3/4, the students boarded the "Hogwart's Express."  It, of course, was decorated with the house color, blue.







We swam for about an hour and a half.






 Pizza to eat for lunch.



 Then off to the movie theater.
