Picture Time!

Here we are!  This has got to be one of the best class pictures yet!  What a cute bunch we are.  :) 

P.E.

As I'm catching up on posts, here are some random P.E. videos.  Enjoy!  

Art Class

The PTO started an after school art program for K-2.  This week they learned from a local artist.  They made clay clovers.  Good times!  :)   

Pancakes!

We read "If You Give A Pig A Pancake" and a recipe for blueberry pancakes, sooooooooooo....  we made some!  They were delicious!  :)  

Love those cute smiles!  

Yoga and a Lucky Party!

Today we had a Lucky Party {for good behavior} and got to eat lunch in our classroom!  

We also had a special P.E. with a yoga specialist.  

It was VERY entertaining to watch these little darlings attempt those moves.  

Happy Monday!  

Happy New Year!

WOW!  This first week back was a little crazy.  I enjoyed my break and didn't step foot in my classroom until Tuesday morning.  That meant we had to do a little organizing, cleaning, and catching up.  The best part was using shaving cream to clean our desks and review our diagraphs {ch, sh, th, wh}.  

I read them Squirrel's New Year's Resolution, which was really great at explaining to them what a resolution was.  Then, we wrote New Year's goals and made these super cute New Year's Kids.  

{Idea from The First Grade Parade}

I brought some New Year's Crackers back with me from Canada.  Each cracker comes with a crown, toy, and joke/riddle/trivia.  They loved poppin' them and had a great time!  

It was a perfect end to a crazy week!  :)  

WINNER!

Sorry for the delay... this week was cRaZy!

You're a Mean One...

Meet our Grinch! 

{Yes, I drew him myself!}

I saw this cute idea on pinterest and knew I HAD to do it this year.  My kiddo's are looking for random acts of kindness to fill the Grinch with love.  Whenever they see someone doing something nice for someone else, the person doing the kind deed gets to put a heart on the Grinch.  If we can fill the Grinch with hearts, we get to have a Grinch Christmas Party the day before Christmas Break!  I have a pretty good feeling we are going to make it!  :)  

Thanks to You Can Make The Sun Shine Anytime for the cute saying to go along with the Grinch.    

The Grinch's heart was two sizes too small.

Let's show him we care for one and for all!
