Carl, the Wonder Dog

in celebration of Klowi's Star Student week, Klowi's mom brought Carl to visit us today. Carl is a Bloodhound/Lab mix with a naturally cropped tail.

Carl is currently at the Oxford Humane Society and has been there for two months.  He was neutered two weeks ago.  He is about four years old.

He was so sweet and loving towards the children.

He needs a home!

He brought a raccoon but didn't mind if the children handled it or him.

If you or anyone you know is looking for a dog, please consider Carl.

100 Days! Hooray!


We had a BLAST celebrating our 100th day of school!

Zaila, Levi, and Lila are stamping 100 times.

Nicholas, Efe, Jess, Elijah, and Allison are sorting then stringing 100 Froot Loops.

Klowi is working on her 100 Days Smarter hat.

We are in the Office starting our 100 Autographs books.

Here we are in Fourth Grade.

Here we are in Jr. K. 

What a fun day!  Thank you to everyone for sending in items for our party, although, I don't think any of the necklaces made it home intact!

A Peek at This Week!

We are still loving "Cruisin' the Continents".  This week we travelled to South America.
We've mastered the two world puzzles in the room.  Here the children are placing landmarks around the world.  The penguins are being used as people.  ;-)

Dancing the rain away!

We do Go Noodle and Just Dance dances.

The sun finally came out!  What a good looking group!

Making Crepes!


" We are showing the kids what crepes are going to look like, " said Elijah

"We are looking at the crepes," said Allison.


"We put in three eggs," said Zaila

"Then we put in oil," said Lila.

"Mixing up the crepes," said Efe.

"My dad is putting strawberries on my crepe, " said Elijah.


"We are rolling up our crepes," said Lila. 
""I loved mine," said Allison

"Elijah's dad is pulling up pictures of Europe for us," said Nicholas.

The children loved telling me about the crepes on Thursday.  Thank you so much to Elijah's parents!

Happy Birthday, Elijah!

Snow Much Fun!!!


We watched and watched as the snow started falling.

We bundled up and headed outside for about 5 minutes.
It was so exciting!

STEM CHallenge # 6 Do You Wanna Build an Igloo?


After watching a video of a real igloo being built, we dove right in to STEM Challenge #6.  It was sticky fun!

There were a few different methods used: some dipped the marshmallows into the frosting, some spread the frosting on the cup, some did both.

The results were sweet and sticky!

Thanks to Nicholas's mom and Lila's mom for sending in supplies for our igloos.

Sight Word Snowball Fight!!


What better way to practice our Sight Words when it's too cold to go outside than an indoor Snowball Fight!!  The children squealed with delight!  We throw them for a minute then freeze and open them up to see what word is on the inside.

Happy Birthday, Allison!
