Rural Hall Elementary School - Mrs. McQueen's First Grade Class


We are very excited to share Flat Stanley’s adventures with you this school year. We are a class of 21 energetic boys and girls. There are 13 boys and 8 girls in our class. We are reading many of the Flat Stanley books. Mrs. McQueen and Mrs. Edwards are helping us become the best first grade students at Rural Hall School. We are reading many books and practicing our math skills. Our class is watching a caterpillar grow and change. Our caterpillar is eating lots of milkweed. It will become a butterfly in about 15 days, then we will set it free in our butterfly garden at school. We are writing about our caterpillar in our journals daily.

Flat Stanley will be traveling with our class on field trips and to other special events. We will be going to Horne Creek Farm in Surry County to feed the animals at the end of October. Then we will dress in our best to go to the Stevens Center in downtown Winston Salem to see the ballet, “THE NUTCRACKER”, in December. While in Winston Salem Flat Stanley will get to see the very tall Wachovia Building and visit Old Salem and the Candle Tea. During the winter months, we hope to get some snow. We usually don’t get much measurable snow in the Piedmont Triad. Who knows?? Maybe Flat Stanley will get a chance to build a snowman with us this year.Stay tuned for the fun adventures of our Flat Stanley. ;-)

Hello Mrs.McQueen and class! We have enjoyed Flat Stanley visiting our classroom. We have taken him on our field trip to Johnson's Pumpkin Farm and had a blast! Flat Stanley's favorite part was eating the doughnuts and drinking apple cider. Flat Stanley enjoyed dressing up for Halloween with our class. When you recieve your book back, enjoy our pictures of Flat Stanley!!

Hello Ms McQueen's class, I made it to Akron, NY. I have been so busy. I've been singing Christmas songs, reading books and learning all about Akron. Did you know they are the home of Perry's Ice Cream and Ford Gum? I also saw my very first snow and it was real cold here one day 6 degrees, BRRRR! I will be leaving here soon and will write more from my next stop. Your Friend,
