Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!

On Wednesday, March 2nd, we celebrated Dr. Seuss' birthday. We read The Cat in the Hat and Green Eggs and Ham. We made The Cat in the Hat hats and we even ate our own version of green eggs. We had lots of fun learning about rhyming words and opposites. It was a great day!

100th Day of School

On Wednesday, February 2nd, we celebrated the 100th day of school! We had a day full of counting fun! Each student was asked to bring in a collection of 100 things. We made a 100th day snack, and we counted to 100 in many different ways throughout the day!

The morning kids' 100th day collections

Syriah brought 100 pencils and Amanda had 100 rubber bands
Salina and Andrew had 100 pennies and Jordi had 100 shapes
Then we made our 100th day snack!
Jordi added 100 animal crackers.
Salina added 100 fruit loops.
Amanda added 100 marshmallows.
Syriah brought in 100 gummy snacks!
Tony added 100 pretzels.
and Andrew added 100 yummy M&Ms
Isn't it colorful?
Andrew was ready to go home after a funfilled 100th day of school!
It's been a great 100 days with the morning kids, but there is still a lot to learn in the last 80!
The afternoon kids also brought in some great collections!
Andrew brought 100 chips, William brought 100 pennies, Griffin had 100 cotton balls and Delaney brought 100 Hershey kisses and hugs!
We then practiced our fine motor skills by coloring and cutting out an outline of the numeral 100.
Griffin's final product
Then it was their turn to make a special 100th day snack!
Andrew started us off with 100 Goldfish.
Then William added 100 Teddy Grahams.
Griffin added 100 M&Ms.
And Delaney topped it off with 100 marshmallows.

We are so proud of our kids and the hard work they have done over the past 100 school days! We look forward to 80 more wonderful days of learning fun!

Snow Day at School

Last Friday, after a week off of school due to "real" snow, we decided to have a "Snow Day" at school! The day was full of fun activities centered around the "white stuff".
The morning class started off the day creating a snow scene painting.
Then, some of the kids wanted to dress up as "snowpals". Here is "Snowpal Andrew"!
"Snowpal Jordan"
"Snowpal Delaney" (Delaney was the only girl who wanted to participate:)
Then we had a good ol' fashion snowball fight! (with cotton balls)

And for snack...snowballs! (aka:marshmallows)
The afternoon class got to make "snow"!
All we had to do was add water to the "Insta-snow" and then the boys had lots of fun playing with it!


Of course, then we had to write about the experience.
The boys explored the elements of winter through their five senses.
We had an exciting "snow day"! I think this will have to become an annual event!
