Humphrey Celebrates Character Day at Hayes

Humphrey paid a surprise visit to Hayes this morning.  Students and staff arrived dressed as their favorite book characters, including Harry Potter, Waldo, the Third Little Pig, Little Red Riding Hood, Anne of Green Gables and Amelia Bedelia.  Students were surprised to be greeted by Humphrey himself as they entered the building!  What's more, we've learned that Humphrey is a Cav's fan!  That's one more reason to love everyone's favorite hamster!

Humphrey Makes His Way Around Lincoln!

Today Humphrey paid a very special visit to all K-2 classrooms at Lincoln! He even brought the real Humphrey with him for a visit. He asked Mrs. Strauss to go into the room ahead of time to see if any gulp! dogs were in the classroom! Luckily, there were no dogs to be found today at Lincoln. Humphrey asked students some trivia questions from Chapter 9 and some of the Kindergarten students even had some great questions for Humphrey about hamsters! What a fun afternoon!

Book Buddies "Chalk About Humphrey"




Mrs. Dyke's Kindergarteners and their 3rd grade Book Buddies in Mrs. Kelly's class took to the sidewalk to "chalk" about their favorite parts of The World According to Humphrey!

shared our ideas,
We talked about the book,
and posed for photos!
Then we chalked about it!


Many students talked about how they like when
Humphrey spins on his wheel! 







Then it was time to relax and read 
in the shade!
