Grade 1    
Mrs. Bruggeman's first graders love being the WILD helper on their special day!  The class interviews and learns all kinds of fun facts about the wild helper.  After the interview, the class does a shared writing, reads about the wild helper, and draws a picture of the wild helper.  The helper loves taking home these special keepsakes from first grade! 
   
Mrs. Bruggeman's first graders have enjoyed learning that Jesus is our Shepherd and we are His sheep!  The class had fun making sheep out of pretzels and marshmallows after talking about ways they can follow Jesus and make Him happy.
