Native American Housing
















We have spent some time learning about the types of housing that Native Americans built and lived in, and we got to try our hand at building mini versions of these shelters. It's harder than it looks!

Happy Thanksgiving!









We had a LOT of visitors for the annual Thanksgiving lunch at our school. We are thankful for you all!


We Salute our Veterans





On November 11, we celebrated Veteran's Day. We wrote thank you notes to the men and women who have served our country, and we also had a special lunch event in the cafeteria where veterans were invited to come eat with us. It was a very nice day.

Tadpoles to Frogs!







Hello, all! It has been a while since we've caught up. I'm going to try to get us up to date then let the kids take over again shortly. There have been several exciting events going on in the past month or so. Our classroom is generally somewhat of a zoo, as we house a hamster, tadpoles, mealworms/beetles, brine shrimp, and a fish. A few weeks ago one of our tadpoles finished his transformation into a frog, so we took a walk down to the creek to let him go. While it was a bit of a sad event, we were all glad to see him hop into the water into his habitat.
