Hi,
my name is Darlene Mulcahy. I am so excited to be
teaching Kindergarten here at Union Memorial School. I
live in Colchester with my husband and three wonderful
girls, ages 15, 11 and 7. Before moving to Colchester
in 2004 my family and I had the opportunity to live in
Ireland for four years, which was a fabulous experience for
us all. Our beloved Sligo, is a golden retriever,
named after a town in Ireland. When I have time, I
love to read, scrapbook and go for walks with Sligo and my
family.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or
concerns. The best way to reach me is by email;
mulcahyd@csdvt.org .
You can also leave me a message at 264-5775 ext. 4191.

Visit from Mrs.
Chittenden's 4th graders
Mrs. Chittenden's 4th
Graders came to read to us the wonderful books that they
wrote and illustrated. We paired up and listened to
their well written stories. We also read our stories
that we had been writing in our Writing Workshop. It
was a great day of sharing literacy! Thank you for
visiting us, Mrs. Chittenden's class!
Our 100th Day of School!!
The 100th day of school
is a fun celebration here at Union Memorial School.
When the children returned to the room in the afternoon,
they found all the numbers from our 100 chart missing so
they went on a hunt to find them all. They worked
together to put the numbers back in their correct order.
Then the children chose different activities in which to
participate; using 100 marshmallows, toothpicks, cereals,
and stamps. They also contributed 100 snacks to add to
our "100 gorp". We also went on a museum
walk to other classrooms to see the creative 100 day
projects that other Kindergarteners made. Look at all
the fun we had!
After
reading many Jan Brett books in December, including The
Mitten and The Hat, we decorated our own mitten
and gingerbread cookies during our Cookie Party!
