Our own inaugural parade


A new kitchen
We talked about the cold weather and how important it was to feed the birds and made bird feeders.

A visit from Maceo

Keela's brother, Maceo, came to read to the class today. He did a wonderful job of reading (He's 4 ! almost 5) and remember to show the pictures after each pair of pages.

Thank you Emily for the great Bear Cave

A pair of scissors, a little tape and lots of imagination and voila!


A bear cave!

Snowman Weather !


It's not every year that the lesson plans and the weather are in sync in Atlanta. But this year the artic blast is arriving just in time for snowmen, hibernating bears and penquins.

We are working on opposites, see how many they know. (i.e. up/down, clean/dirty, hot /cold, old/new etc.) A few have obviously played this game before but they are all catching on fast!

Technical Difficulties!

Today's photos of Fisher's Birthday celebration and other things were record on the camera's internal memory and not the memory card....and I can't find the cable to get them out! The school has the same brand and I'm hoping that by Monday afternoon I will have released them from their little digital prison.

Welcome Back!

Happy New Year ! It was great to see everyone again after such a long break. We noticed that no matter what new and interesting things are available to play with, you can't compete with new play dough and easel paint

Emily was the line leader today. She brought a book about cowboys and a snack of oatmeal cookies and cheezits! We are starting to talk about Winter, and perhaps the weather will co-operate with our schedule. Maybe we will even see a little snow. Today's special was Music.

Managed a little playground time between showers


The rain collecting in the downspout was the most fascinating part of the playground today. Michael stuck a stick in it and said "we're camping!" (Is this fishing or roasting marshmellows?)
