Our Prairie Dog Town

Check out our prairie dog town! We had a great time figuring out how to work together in one big fort. What fun!

The guards

First day of buddies!

We had a fun time meeting our buddies for the first time this year. We meet at 1:15 on Wednesdays with Alexandra's fifth and sixth grade class. 

Memory

We play a lot of cards. Here the class is playing memory. Ask your child what card games they know.

How do 100 ants march in a row?

According to the story, 100 Hungry Ants, you may walk in a row of 100, 2 rows of 50 or even 10 rows of 10.  We are making the different sets of rows by group. It was a fun activity to stretch our counting as well as working in a group.

Let's get cutting!

We start the year with no supplies available. We explore how to use and take care of each material before it is put out on the shelf. In these photos, partners are cutting out their fish and hopes and dreams bubble. While one person cuts, the other person is the "safety checker". To date we have no injuries! Success!

Quiet Time

We have quiet time everyday after lunch and our jobs. It's a wonderful time to relax and reset for the afternoon.
