Once there were snowpeople??




I love the "Once There Was A Snowman" primary song. When the the Christmas snow started to melt because we had some above 32 temps, we were able to make a snow woman and snow man. We had so much fun that day. My nephew helped build these but did not want to have his picture taken. We were able to roll huge snowballs around. Since the snow was wet, it was so HEAVY. The snowpeople have since left. We hope to see them again this month or next.

We even were able to sled down the 5 foot drifts that were up against the house. I even got on top of the drift, got on the sled, and then flipped backwards the wrong way. Sorry no pictures of that my friends! My nephew and son busted up laughing at me and I was just hoping the neighbors were not looking at that moment. The kids were able to sled down the drifts with no problem. Can't wait for more snow to do this again.

Then grades had to be put in and it was down over the Christmas break so I had a huge pile to get in. Parent teacher conferences were on Thursday. I didn't meet with alot. I met with most of my students'  parents. The one that I wanted to talk to of course didn't show. My own children are doing great in class. Brayden is started to read more and more each day. He is reading near the end of his grade level. Lyndee knows all of her alphabet and sounds. They finally let her check out a library book. Yippee! Sometimes I wish that they would treat Kindergarten with more rigor toward the middle of the year to get them ready for first. Just my opinion. My house is feeling very neglected and wil...

Day 5 -- Vacation

On Wednesday, our last day in the land of the heat. We went to the Mesa Southwest Museum. I guess it is call the Museum of Natural History. In all my years living in the valley and in Eagar, we never went to this museum. It rocked! I wished that I could take my students there. This room was all black with flourescent lighting. The kids could write on those white board with light wands. Whatever the kids wrote would be gone in about 20-30 seconds. It was pretty cool. I loved the interactive the stuff. I have been wanting to do this for years with my classroom. I have wanted them to create their plays. Then act them out in front of a green screen and then use a computer program to put their scenery in. I think I am going to find a grant and write one! Sister Lou loved being on T.V. We would couldn't drag this little starlet off it. Isn't this cute? They got behind the TV and now they are projected into an old western. They had a part of the old territorial prison in th...
