Class of 2011-2012

Welcome parents and children. I hope you will begin to follow our classroom blog. We will begin showing you things that are happening in our classroom. Today I came back to school to find a BIG mess! The maintance people put sunscreen film on our classroom windows this weekend. It made a big difference in our classroom today! The sun shone in but we could see! Wonderful!

Wow! Can you believe that the First 9 Weeks of school has already come and gone? My Blog is seriously lacking. To all my parents and interested followers this Blog will be up and running correctly Monday Oct. 17th. I apologize greatly.

August is Almost here!

Where has the summer gone. My classroom is empty and the room is silent. Watch while it changes, getting ready for a new group of children. Will it be ready? Will I be ready? What will a new year hold for us all? Excitement and learning that is for sure. Hope you will follow us as we learn and grow.

Hoppy Easter to all

We are beginning our study of plants. We looked at the inside of bean seeds with our magnifying glasses. Can plants grow without soil? What do they need to grow? We also have a Venus Flytrap. Does it really eat meat?

Changes

It seems like all we do is say hello and good-bye. Good-bye to Jeffrey who moved to Liberty Elementary and hello to both Elijah and Tatyana who have recently joined us. We are still having cold weather here in Southern Georgia which is a little strange but the weather is promising to become warmer and more Spring like the rest of this week. We certainly hope so. We are beginning a unit on Plants. Yesterday we looked at seeds of all kinds. Our favorite was the coconut. Some of us found it tasty and others didn't. But however it tasted we decided it was very hard!!

Snow in Southern Georgia

Last Friday evening the unbelievable happened in Georgia. We had snow! On Wednesday when we came back to school we had a lot to talk about. Most of us have never seen snow in our lives before. How much fun!
