Pancakes and Pajama Day

There is nothing like comfort foods, soft stuffed animals 

and comfy clothing 

to make your day extra special.  

Add your best buddies and well... it just doesn't get any better!

Thanks to all our wonderful parent pancake flippers!! 

 The pancakes were delicious and so were the toppings!

What happens when your pancake is almost gone???

You ask for another one!!  :)

After our morning brunch, 

we interviewed one another 

with questions about our favorite comfort things.

We ended our day with Mrs. Kemp 

leading us in some calming yoga poses.

What a wonderfully relaxing day of comforts!

Namaste

Rosca De Reyes

Senora Crampton let us

 each have a taste of the 

Special Bread for Three Kings Day

The celebration is followed by a fiesta!

We had fun imagining 

what could be inside of each one :)

Olay!

Gracias Senora!!

First Flakes of Snow at School

It's tradition! 

When the first flakes of snow fall during the school day, 

we stop what we're doing and make chocolate chip cookies - it's tradition :)

 The smell of Toll House cookies fills the hallway.

 Who cares if it's 8:30 in the morning - it's tradition!

We shared some warm cookies with our wonderful office staff too!

Our First Trip Together!

Meet Grandma Steffans.  

She is telling us all about the importance 

of bees in the apple orchard

After learning all about how apples grow 

and the varieties on the farm, 

we hopped on a wagon ride with Farmer Rob Steffans 

to see the apples up close.

 Below is Farmer Rob pointing out the red delicious apples we can try - yum!

 So many to choose from,

pick the best one!

CRUNCH!!!

Then it was off to the pumpkin patch so select a pumpkin for home

Thanks Steffans Orchard, 

we had a GREAT time!!

Smile and say "Applesauce!"

Many thanks to Heather Saunders for these incredible pictures!!

A Serenade for Rosie

Drawing upon lullabies that were sung to them, 

the kiddos spontaneously sing Rosie to sleep.  

Precious!

Ending the year with a...Peep!

How does a teacher keep her student's 

attention in school when summer is beckoning?

Hatch chicks!!!

You should have seen them skipping 

down the hallway this morning to meet our new class pets

Rosie hatched at 7:50 this morning and the children 

instantly sang 'Happy Birthday!"

Here she is getting use to all the smiles 

that encourage her every move and peep.

 What a great way to end our school year together!

Merry Month of May!

 What do you do on a beautiful spring day?  

Stop and marvel at the colors on display.

After their CHAMPion behavior - what a feat,

We stopped at Jersey Junction for an ice cream treat!
