Water Fun Day!

Today was Water Fun Day! The students have been earning points for good behavior and responsibility for the past month. Thankfully, everyone earned their points and got to go to Water Fun Day! The weather was a little cool and misty, so we didn't do as many "wet" activities as usual. However, we still had a lot of fun. :-) Here were all 5 of the stations we went to:
1. Water balloon ball
2. Blowing bubbles with all kinds of bubble wands
3. Throwing frogs into water buckets - whichever team got the most frogs in their bucket won
4. Pool noodle race
5. Playing on the "big kids" playground equipment

At the end of Water Fun Day, we enjoyed ice cream sandwiches. It turned out to be an awesome day! :-)

Fun with Watercolors

The students love to watercolor. We do not get to do it too often, but it was a fun activity on a rainy day. Unfortunately, field day was canceled last Thursday due to this rain, but we are ready for it tomorrow! I will try to get as many pictures as I can. Also, here are two new class pictures to enjoy. :-)

Miss Campos took a picture of me with the class too!

Kindergarten Music Program

Tonight was our Kindergarten Music Program. The students arrived in their best clothes. Of course, I had to get some pictures of them looking so nice before the program began. Here they are:

A group picture - 2 other students showed up right before the program, so they missed the group picture:

Then, they headed to the stage, and they did an awesome job singing during their performance. I even managed to get two video clips of them singing two different songs.


All of the songs had great actions, so this is an attempt to show families some of their cutest stuff:

At the end of the program, the students followed their teacher outside, and were given their "diplomas." Of course, they still have to go to school for the last 2 weeks. :-) They also enjoyed cookies and we had plenty of photo opportunities. :-) It was a great night!
