Polar Express Field Trip

We had a blast on our Field Trip.  I think we could all agree that this was one of the best days in Kindergarten.  Thanks to all the parents and grandparents who helped us out at Burger King.
Thank you to our students who's behavior was GREAT on our field trip.  What a fun day!

Camaya has her ticket and is ready to go!

All ready for the Polar Express!


Ms. Jessica did a great job reading the book to us!

All snuggled up.

A good friend will help you blow your hot chocolate :)

Student of the week

Congrats to Haleigh Stone on being the Student of the week!
She is such a great friend, student, and helper.  She is very patient and kind.  If you see Haleigh at school she always has a big smile on her face.

Thank you Haleigh for being in my class!

Teachers go see Dr. Jean

I don't know if you have heard of Dr. Jean but she is very well known for her cd's and books.  She was an amazing Kindergarten teacher who now travels around the United States and shares her ideas.  The kids love singing her songs in the morning around the carpet.

Kristi, Thad, and I got up early and headed to Birmingham to listen to her speak.  We got a FULL day of her ideas, songs, and activities.  We were so excited to get back and use these ideas. If you need a good cd for your kids to sing to in the car look her up.  She has catchy songs with lyrics that help the children learn.  You can also go to youtube and look up Dr. Jean and some of her videos are up.  The kids love singing to those too.  We are very thankful to have he opportunity to have this experience!
