ABC Bootcamp

Photo Provided ABC bootcamp was recently held for Turkey Run Elementary School kindergarten students in Jessica Hanson’s and Katie Badger’s classes. As a part of the bootcamp, students learned a letter a day for 26 days. Every day, the students were introduced to a new sound and letter and then they came up with words that started with that sound. The classes did various other daily activities like make hats, books, sing songs, and read stories. Then at the end of the bootcamp, each student was assigned a letter and decorated a vest with pictures that began with (or included for the letter x) that sound. Some of the decorating happened in the classroom and students’ families also helped. The classes held an ABC fashion show to celebrate. The young fives classes and some school staff members came to watch along with some Warrior Up reading groups. Students participating in the fashion show were front row, Aroura Lott, Lily Westbrook, Izzy Cotten, Jewell Eldridge, Charlotte Cronk, and Braelynn Lods; second row, Lyric Breedlove, Jarod Ethington, Jordan Powell, Poetry Parker, Sophie Ryan, Elijah Poole, Spencer Portier and Todd Threlkeld; third row, Oda Steele, Lillie Goss, Addilyn Steele, Andrew Palmer, Maverick Hansel, Eli McCoy, Karter Scott, Harrison Bridge and TJ Girdler; fourth row, Jacob Newnum and Carter Girdler; and back row, Arrow Irelan, Charlotte Burgess, Karson Myers, Jordan Webb, Leah Wirth, Kingston Kirk, Lylah Linthicum, Aurora Lamb, Abraham Morman, Savannah Armstrong and Grayson Hybarger.
