Welcome to our world of discovery and learning!

Welcome to our daily blog! We use it to share daily updates on our classroom, reflections on our learning with children, and photographs. Extended family, friends, neighbors, educators, etc, are also encouraged to follow the blog!
One of the wonderful aspects of blogging is that it allows real-time interaction between home and school. Is your child talking about what we are doing in school? Leave us a comment and let us know! Are you interested (or even an expert!) in something we are studying? Leave us a comment and let us know! Are you planning an outing with your child to extend the classroom learning? Leave us a comment and invite other families along!
We also have a section call, "Learn More About..." When we write each post, we tag it with relevant topics. And so if you wanted to see what we have been doing with, for instance, science, you would click on that tag, and see all the posts about science.

"Il faut en profiter!"

There is a saying in French that roughly translates, to "One must take advantage!" meaning that if the opportunity presents itself, you have to avail yourself of it. Today, the opportunity presented to the Owls was a most perfect autumn day! We started the morning with Inside-Outside Choice Time with many children choosing to make mud pies, rake pine needles, and enjoy the sunshine outdoors.






Inside, some children continued to work in the Writing Center, writing letters and making costumes.





Next we went on a campus walk, complete with missions. We mailed our letter to Jamell, delivered some mail to the Business Office, cheering them with our songs, and delivered some sheets to Nikki in the gym who is collecting them for a family in need.









And then it was time to frolic in the fields!
