Snowflake Tradition

It's tradition in our classroom 

that when the first falling snowflakes are spotted for the season, 

we stop everything we're doing and make chocolate chip cookies.  

Today the flakes were discovered at 9:03 this morning.  

Here we are ready to pop our little treats in the oven.

Yum - there's nothing like warm toll house cookies 

on a chilly morning!

Wanna try one??

Here's to the season of snowy white fun!!

Halloween's Here!

What's Halloween without a Spooky Hallway??  

Extra thanks to Mrs. Orsini, Mrs. Lewis, Mrs. Saltsman

and Mrs. Koop for helping to create a special hallway on Thursday night. 

Just popping in for some Halloween cheer :)

Snuggle in close with a friend - there's a spider behind you!!

 Halloween buffet - sure to please any little goblin.

It was all treats for this group.

Thanks for a great party!!!

Field Trip to Calvin's Nature Preserve

What a beautiful day for learning in the woods!

Our Calvin student guides gave us magnifying glasses 

to help us see what nature was hiding.

 We discovered insects building homes for the winter...

And how the rays of sun can beam down to light the way. 

We observed painted turtles...

And evidence of animal homes. 

We loved learning from our living textbook this morning.

Thanks to all the Calvin College students for guiding us!
