Dr. Seuss Week!

 Monday was Whoville Crazy Hair Day!

 Also on Monday the students earned their ice cream treat by filling up our "Blurt Bean Jar". They are doing a great job of not blurting and remembering to raise their hand to speak:)

 Our Cat in the Hat artwork!

 Cat in the Hat - Hat Day!

 In Bible we made crosses to decorate our classroom door for Easter!

 Tuesday was our last day to learn about Peru. We learned one of the favorite sports there is soccer....if they came home a little tired, now you know why!

 We read Dr. Seuss's book, "What Pet Should I Get?". Then the students chose pets they would love to have and cut them out of magazines.

 Everyday the students had fun with our K-3rd Dr. Seuss Guessing Game...here is the picture of the one Maeley won! 

 In Math we sorted colored Goldfish crackers and graphed how many of each color there were. (One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish!)

 For a fun Art/Science project we gave Thing 1 and Thing 2 blue hair by using straws to blow blue paint...they also had fun blowing their pencils around the table!

 Lastly, we finished our week by watching Dr. Suess cartoon movies and eating popcorn! 

Happy Spring Break!

Coffee and a Good Book! (that's my kind of week!)

No Shoe Day! We had kids in slippers, kids in socks, kids with bare feet, and shockingly a child with shoes!

 Apparently no shoes = act silly!

 Monday was our last day to learn about Mexico. We made maracas and learned about mariachi bands. 

 In honor of Reading Month we did a guided drawing of The Cat in the Hat. This was the first guided drawing we have done...so much fun! Check out our hallway to see how great they turned out!

 In Math we broke out the M&M's again to work on subtraction! Of course this required us to eat a few;)





In Social Studies we moved from Mexico to Peru. We took an "airplane" ride to Peru to find out more and we learned that instead of soy beans, they farm coffee beans!

 So we used coffee beans to make some artwork...

 And we ground up coffee beans in our class to brew
 some coffee...

 Some of the students were brave enough to eat a coffee bean...that didn't turn out so well!!!

 Lastly, they all tried to drink a little bit of black coffee...I think their expressions say it all!

 Finally! The end of the day Thursday we had our Book Swap!
