Colorful eggs for Easter!



 Natalia's big smile says it all! This girl can spell like a champion!










 We got started painting some Easter eggs.
 We mixed colors and did some wax resist.





 We shared candy and plastic eggs.


Leanna loves chocolate!

This is what computer lab looks like!

 Dreambox.com actually complements our math program beautifully. The only problem is they can only get 30 min. a week in the lab. I encourage every student to spend an additional hour every week at home working on Dreambox.com. That's only 20 min. three days a week at home. It is really helping them!!!


Here is what it sounds like!

This is Emma and Samantha reading knee to knee.

Shared reading knee to knee style!

 We read to each other, we praise each other, we help each other sounding out words. You should hear the conversations going on. Pure learning! Makes me happy, teacher style!

We are back from break and learning up a storm!!!

 Spring had sprung in South Carolina. Such a beautiful place.
 Trying out a cartwheel....more practice needed.


 Grass angels! No snow, but lots of green grass.
 Races, everybody wins!
 Adding with dice partner style. Working together is great!


 Magnets! We learned about their magnetic field and how they attract and repel.


 Repel races are fun.
 Natalia exploring the big yellow clock. What time is it Natalia?
 Math, math is so much fun!
 One person wanted me to read a Pete the Cat book and by the end I had 6 kids around me. It was center time.
Tomorrow computer lab!
