Dairy Farm

Wednesday we had a fabulous time at the Westbrook Dairy Farm.  When we got there they took us on a hay ride, so we could see all of the cows, the barns and pastures.  Then we got to climb in really, really big tractors.  We also got to watch some cows being hooked up to milking machines and how the milk is transported off the farm.  Everyone also got to feed a calf, which was a trip highlight!  Then we had a picnic lunch complete with 3 different dairy products: milk, cheese and ice cream!  What a fun trip. 

Kaytlyn is 6!

Happy Birthday, Kaytlyn.

Can-O-Worms

We are now worm farmers!  Our class is heading up the Can-O-Worms compost project.  Tuesday we had 1,000 worms delivered.  Before they arrived we collected the leftover apple scraps and cores, from our wing, and soaked the bedding to prepare it. 

Garrison Pilcher Trip

As a way to help the children make a smooth transition to Garrion Pilcher, next year, we went for our first trip over there.  Today’s trip was to meet our 1^st grade buddy class and get our children to experience their lunchroom.  Our students were able to go through their lunch line and see what the inside of the lunchroom looks like, but then we got a special treat and went out into the court yard for a picnic with our new friends.  After lunch we played on their super fun playground.  All of our children had fun and are excited to go back for our second visit at the end of March. 

Cat in the Hat

We couldn't let Dr. Seuss' birthday pass without celebrating one of his most favorite characters, the Cat in the Hat.  We made our own hats and then made our own edible cats!

March Moms

Thank you to all of the moms and grandmothers who read us books!

Wacky Wednesday

Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!  We loved celebrating your birthday by reading LOTS of your books, including Wacky Wednesday and we even dressed wacky and did wacky things, like eat at a different class' lunch table while eating green eggs and ham!
