4...3...2...1...SUMMER!

Well it's official... You now have a 2nd grader! We had such a great last week of school! The balloon on Monday was an art day. Tuesday was an end of the year party with pizza, cookie cake, pixie sticks, and bubbles! Yesterday was 80's day and today was shaving cream! They REALLY enjoyed the shaving cream-- they had it everywhere! It's been a great year and I will truly miss every student in my class. Enjoy your summer!

Countdown to the end!

I am sure you have heard about the balloons all over our classroom. We are popping a balloon each day to countdown the days until summer! Day 9 was a full day of stinky feet! They loved spending the entire day in their socks! Day 8 was clay day. We had a clay creation contest and each creation was awesome and quite inventive. Day 7 was a hula hoop party! We spent the end of the school day hula hooping outside and enjoying the weather! Day 6 was extra recess! The kids had been waiting for this one-- somehow they knew I would put that in a balloon! Stay tuned for the rest of the balloons...

Global Wildlife!

Our last field trip of the year was a success! This truly was the best year for the animals. We normally don't see that many giraffes! We were very lucky!
