 Here is a sneak peek for next week's 100 Day celebration!

We've been having a fun time learning at choice time!

 

 

Mrs. Heyer works in small groups with kiddos in the afternoon.  Somehow the 3rd toy for the "Rhymes with Bee" went missing so we used.....Lee!  My 3rd child!!! Haha! This is him in Kindergarten (he is 37 now!) 

Our Social Studies topic was to compare cultures.  Since we just finished learning about the Lunar New Year, we decided to compare China and U.S.A!

On Monday we learned soooo much about Groundhogs and then created these cutie patooties:

 

Here are few new stations around the room:

And believe me, it was a very Monday Monday when I spilled an entire container of Orbees!
