New Blog

I have opened up a new blog site where the children will be doing all the posting.

We have a few posts already and many more on the way. We are working on correct capitalization, punctuation, and spelling. It won't be perfect, but we hope you enjoy it

and please leave comments to encourage us to share our lives with you. You can help us grow as writers and individuals because interacting with you makes learning so much fun.

Thank you for all your support.

Happy Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is possibly our favorite day of the year.

We had all kinds of good treats to eat.
Lots of good friends,
and special valentines.



Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!

Valentine Holders

This week we read a wonderful story about how Abraham Lincoln kept all his important papers in his tall top hat. We decided to make tall hats like he had and put our important Valentine's in .

We will have our Valentine party on Thursday since we don't have school on Friday.

Trophy

Today we went to a teaching assembly where the staff and leadership team taught us about the characteristic of being a "caring" citizen. At the end of the assembly one class of primary students is awarded a trophy for the best assembly behavior. Today we earned the trophy.

Another month has gone by so we opened up the store.

Everyone decide what they wanted to purchase with their pennies that they have earned.

I sure enjoy watching 7 and 8 year olds count money.

Have a great week end everyone!

Thanks for visiting.

Painting Hearts

This week we painted some hearts.

First we painted the heart and then added a little white to add highlights.

Then came the background.

I had them make an extra so I could frame it and place it in our room.

They turned out perfect.
