We fit so much into our short 3 1/2 hours together and ended the day with a fast 3 laps around the school as part of the week of fundraising for Juvenile Diabetes and March of Dimes. Today we started the day with a fun Easter story, and then learned about Interrupting Politely in a Second Step lesson. Then we had a long recess and let our butterflies go. It was cool enough that they hung around on our hands and each child that wanted to hold one got to. The students were very quiet and calm and enjoyed a close up look at our butterflies before we set them free.
When we came in from recess, we had treats for earning the 300 compliments, and had a surprise visit from Eli's guinea pig because his Mom had brought it to his older brother's class. We took a quick peek and then headed to Library. Mrs. Bartsch met with me during library, so she went to pick them up and bring them back to the room! She is such a cheerful teacher, we love having her! Then it was time to get our backpacks, coats and our plants to take home. Many of the bean seeds did not grow. I apologize if it was because we had two different bags of soil and the last ones planted seem to do better than the first ones.
The final things we did was to Drop everything to Walk around the school. It was a very fast pace because the whole school participated. We were very glad Mrs. Treglown our librarian was walking so that she could take the front of our class and I could try to corral them all together. I was glad each child said "Happy Easter" to Mrs. Clapper so I knew that they got to their ride home! Whew! Now I need to head to Teacher meetings and then to the airport to get my daughter and granddaughter!
Next week we will have both Vv and Zz for Show and Tells. Tuesday students told me they would try hard to remember their two things of come up with something to say about V and Z words!
Have a nice vacation!
Sincerely, Carol Clapper
