I Heart Mom

"To the world you are a mother, but to your child you are the world." Oh my goodness how true this is, and it was proven at our wonderful PreK Mothers' Day "Picnic".  I was absolutely amazed at all of the wonderful mothers that took the time out of their day to come eat lunch with their child.  I know it was a celebration for the moms, but oh my goodness the smiles on the kids faces made it seem like it was a celebration of them! Here are some wonderful snapshots from our special day with mom. I love seeing these pictures and how much these adorable kiddos look like their beautiful mamas!


















































I mean those are some big smiles! 

















After lunch each day we go back to the classroom, read a story, then take a nap.  This day of celebration was no different in that way, but we got the special treat of having mom read the story.


Cute Addison could not take her eyes off her mom, she was SO excited!


Be still my heart...


























Happy teacher here, Jack read to his mom!









All of these pictures truly melt my heart.  This was the first time we had this celebration in PreK, but it MUST continue!


Thank you to all of the moms for your time...we love you!

The Perfect Pair

Today we learned all about pairs. We learned that a pair is two of anything that is the same, and that not everything has to come in a pair but some things do. Each student either brought a pair to share with the class or was sent hunting for one in the classroom.

Everyone got to present their pair and were promoted to use as many descriptive words as they could.
Corinne started us off with a pair of pink stripe mittens.


Grayson shared a pair of silver sheriff badges.


Jack brought a pair of yellow toy corn.


Addison had a pair of pink heart socks.


Brynley brought a few pairs, but here is her pair of pink princess ponies.


Trip had a pair of green pencils.


Miss Sofia showed us a pair of pretty purple flowers.


Olivia had a pair of big red hair bows.


George shared a pair of "lovies". (That is one smart mommy to have multiple lovies!)


Matthew showed us his cool red baseball cleats!


My ninja turtle lovin Blake shared a pair of way cool TMNT socks.


Amelia had a pair of striped gloves.


Here's another Ninja Turtle, Mr. Bryson, who brought a cool pair of Ninja swords!


Rece helped us learn something new with his pair of adorable cowboy chaps, and that is that even though there aren't two chaps...the one pair has a pair of legs!


Then I sent Alex on a hunt for a pair of counting bears.





Stella had to search for a pair of purple markers.





Austin found us a pair of "light blue" chairs.





Finally, Maddie showed us a pair of lunch boxes!





To finish up our pair lesson, we got to play the fun pair making classic, memory!!

Here are some proud matchmakers!!
