All I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom is not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sand pile at school.
These are the things I learned:
Share everything.
Play fair.
Don't hit people.
Put things back where you found them.
Clean up your own mess.
Don't take things that aren't yours.
Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.
Wash your hands before you eat.
Flush.
Warm cookies and milk are good for you.
Live a balanced life-learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and work everyday some.
Take a nap every afternoon.
When you go out in the world, watch for traffic, hold hands and stick together.
Be aware of wonder.
Everything you need to know is in there somewhere!

Fun on the Farm!


Well, we lucked out and missed the raindrops and had a wonderful day at Griebel's Dairy Farm in Lucinda. We got to bottle feed the baby calves, meet some rabbits, kittens and goats and tour the milking parlor where a lot of the children had some really great questions for Susie Griebel-our fearless tour guide. We also enjoyed a picnic lunch in the sunshine in front of the farm house. It turned out to be a beautiful day and a great field trip. See you next year, Susie!

Happy Easter!


We had a busy and exciting today in K108! We made chick masks and our Easter baskets this morning in centers. We even listened to "There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed a Chick" by Lucille Colandro and Jared D. Lee at our listening center. The Easter Bunny came to visit and hid some eggs outside in the courtyard for us! Regan, a 5th grader from Mr. Henry's room, came to read us an Easter story that she wrote and colored with us. It was very nice of her to volunteer her time and we all appreciated it. Happy Easter everyone!

Meeting With Our Prankster Partners!


On Thursday, April 2nd K108 got to meet B-7 through some really cool technology. Mrs. Blazosky and I used Skype to call each other and we used webcams to see each other. Our kiddos got to meet their partner from B-7 as well as watch the interactions on our SmartBoard. Some of the questions and comments were so cute! The children were absolutely amazed at getting to meet their partner through the computer. I cannot wait to see what we come up with next!

April Fool's to B-7!


April Fool's everyone! K108 teamed up with Mrs. Traci Blazosky's first grade class at Clarion Area Elementary to pull some super pranks this April Fool's Day! To get us ready I read the book, April Foolishness by Teresa Bateman. The story is about a young boy trying to prank his grandfather on April's Fools day by making up all these crazy accusations about the farm animals on his grandpa's farm. A very cute story and it got us in the mood to plot our pranks on B-7! During Writer's Workshop we drew our prank and wrote a story about it, and then we used VoiceThread to load the pictures into and record our voices telling our prank. Enjoy!
