Check out the Monster Blog, too!

     On Friday, the kids had fun reading the monster drawing directions written by the Stars, our first grade friends.  Check out the slideshow of these cute, square monsters like the one above.

Thank you to L's Grandmother!

On Wednesday, the kids had so much fun "hatching" little dinosaurs from the eggs prepared by L and his grammy.  It was exciting to see which type of dinosaur each child would get.  This was a fun project, and it tied in nicely to our current science unit.

Mischief Maker Visits our Classroom

     There was a lot of excitement in the room on St. Patrick's Day.
We had a little visitor during the night.  He left chocolate coins for the kids and messes for me EVERYWHERE!
There was green paint spilled on the table, festive confetti sprinkled all around and gold glitter glue all over the place.  The kids were still finding traces of the visiting leprechaun on Friday.  Who knew St. Patrick's Day could be so fun?  A special thanks goes to Mrs. Fisher for the fun and yummy Lucky Charms snack mix she shared with us!

Fun with Monster Faces

Check out our other blog.  We are working with some first grade friends down the hall on a really fun monster writing project.  We are learning to be REALLY specific with our language and also thinking about how to organize our writing so that others can follow what we wrote.  Click below to check it out.

Fall Art Project. . . Time to say goodbye!

                     

    These torn paper art projects were created back in October.  The kids did a fantastic job with them.
They have been hanging in my room all year.  Since it is almost spring, I guess I should take them down and replace them with something more timely.  I will miss them so I preserved them digitally to share with visitors to our blog.  OneTrueMedia is cool and very user friendly.  I will definitely make more slideshows to share.  Enjoy!
