Celebrate Good Times

Whew, what a week!

This past week was one celebration after the other.
We started on Fat Tuesday with a Mardi Gras parade that was led by none other than...
US!
 We got all decked out in our purple, green and gold to throw beads and candy to the big kids while the Catholic High band played.
 It was quite chaotic, but boy did we have fun!
We then returned to our classroom to have personal king cakes (aka donuts).
Yummo

Our next celebration was one filled with LOVE.
Each student made an adorable Valentine box, and brought a Valentine card and/or candy for each of their friends in the class.
The kids had a blast passing out their treats.


 Once all of the Valentines were passed out we got to look through, and enjoy some of our treats.






Although we did have a lot of fun last week, we also had some very important learning to do.
We have begun a long unit on living things, and this week we learned that ALL living things grow/change, move, eat, and reproduce.  We discussed the different characteristics of living things in detail, so we ended with a sorting activity.  We had to look through different magazine clippings and decide which pictures were of living things, and which were of nonliving things.








Finally, a big shout out to our adorable Star of the Week...
Sullivan!

 Thank you SO much for the delicious Sugar cookies.
