Happenings in September 2015

Our first full month of school was a busy one and I tried to capture some of these moments on camera.
  • The beginning of the month we collected pinecones and then we painted them yellow, red, and orange.  After they dried we placed them in clear glass vases and have them displayed in the hallway by the front doors of the school. 
  • We invited our grandparents to come spend an afternoon in our classroom.
  • We spent an afternoon doing bubble activities. 
  • We used balloons to help practice math facts. 
  • We went on a leaf hunt one day.  When we got back to the classroom the students worked on making a leaf pattern as part of a science activity.  They also had fun creating a leaf man. 
  • We celebrated a birthday on September 25th. 
  • The last day of September was school picture day. 
  • Recess is always a fun when the teacher joins the kids. 
  • We started going to the library every two weeks.
