Wow! It was nice to see so many of you at the Fools' 5 Race last weekend!
See you all next year!
It seems like this has been theater season for us!
How fancy sounding is that?
Ha! We are the opposite of a fancy family!
Our last tickets were for Spamalot,
a hilarious musical down at Viterbo!
I took Tuesday off to take my youngest to doctors appointments, get shots, and to register at WSU for PSEO classes his senior year!
I swear he was just a kindergartener a little bit ago!
This week in kindergarten we began a new game called "BEAT THE CLOCK" where the k kids
read the chart racing the 1 minute timer.
Three kids can already
BEAT THE CLOCK!
AMAZING!
This week was review week!
We've so many star words under our belts,
we are really reading now!
This chart is fun!
It helps us focus on what each type of punctuation means.
Oh, boy! It's PURPLE COW season!
I love this funny poem by Gelett Burgess, written over a hundred years ago!
Scroll down for more purple cow items like writing and eating!
This fun balancing game is good for
our dexterity and math skills!
Our farm table is coming along, so many GREAT books to choose from!
The discovery table has, you guessed it, farm items!
Hold on to your hats, we just opened the
