We had a visit from Justin's dad today. The kids had fun playing the Ten Frame game with Mr. Brandon. Thanks for hanging with us today!
The kids had a "really hard" homework assignment last night...find a rock to bring to school. Ha! We had some great examples to look at today to help us learn about land/rock types.The kids discovered that no rock is the same. They didn't realize that rocks could be sparkly!
I've read a few different books about the election the past two days (duck for President, Grace for President, and My Teacher for President to get the kids excited about the real election. Today the entire school held mock elections. The upper grades voted for our real presidential candidates, while the Kinders voted on Grace, Duck, or their teacher. Among the Kindergarten race, Grace won the election, which means that we now have a female president!
Thank you for having your child dress in Americana attire today to get in the spirit! I just love Emilio's shirt..."Future President"! How cool would that be if that we're true in a few years? I could say that I was his teacher!
PE had to be relocated to our flex space since the flu clinic was in the gym today. So I got to peek on the kids during PE. I wish you could've heard how much fun they were having right outside my door!
Did you go vote for real today? I did with my little ones. Benjamin was having fun just trying to say the two names, while Mary Elizabeth was exited about the sticker and refresh,nets being passed out at the church. Mary Elizabeth didn't have to wear a uniform today in honor of Election Day too. I didn't realize until I picked her up that we had "twin legs" according to her. All three of us had to support our country with our colors!
My daughter got to vote at her school today as well. They got to vote for Clifford, the big red dog, or the newbie, Pete the Cat. Her teacher sent this link from Ch. 11 tonight that I thought was too cute not to share!
