Nifty Neckties and Yummy Noodle Nests

 Fabulous Friday was filled with sorting, graphing and describing our "Nifty Neckties". We also made Noodle Nests to go along with our counting book "How Many Eggs".  We had some very special guests this week for Andrew's "Star of the Week".  Andrew surprised us with Nancy's italian ice as his share on Friday. We also had a surprise visit from Ms. Watson's senior class.  Our big buddies taught us about our bones.  Looking forward to many more science lessons.

B We had a "BEARY" good time with our bears!  Teddy Bear spend the night was full of counting, sorting and graphing fun!  We enjoyed a week of bear books especially "Goldilocks and the Three Bears".  We loved our smartboard "sorting things by size" game.  We went in to wake up our bears early Friday morning only to find that they had been up all night playing in our room.  Look for a special book in the snack bucket that journals where we found our bears.  We spent some time explaining our classroom rules to our bears and you will be happy to know that all of our bears kept their frog on the log!  We rewarded our bears with a teddy bear picnic and some playground fun!  It was a "Beary" good day!!
