Being a school employee is unique. What other jobs can you earn respect for dressing like Flo from Progressive Insurance, but get weird looks later when you stop at Hy-Vee?
Our middle school teachers had way too much fun with their Rhyme Without Reason dress up day for courtwarming week. Check out Patrick Mahomes and his garden gnomes. Then we have Napolea-ON and some cray-ONs. Finally, our sixth grade teachers dressed as things/people ending with the long o sound. Directions: Work together in the comments to see if we can figure out the other long o sounds, besides Flo.
Thank you WMMS staff for our community phonics lesson.
