March At a Glance

It has been a pretty busy, crazy month! Lots of fun though!

It was Carter's turn to take the treats to preschool and so we went all out this time (another of my mom's brilliant ideas by the way).

They each got a treat bag with the following message:
Before you eat this special treat
Find your partner for you see
One has "x" and the other "o"
Play a game of Tic Tac Toe

Half the class got homemade "x" cookies and the other half got oreo's. They each got a licorice to make their tic tac toe board. Watching the kids try to play was hilarious! One of the younger kids, about 2 minutes in, said "Teacher, can I just eat my cookies please." In the end, everyone had fun and they all shared their cookies so that everyone got some of both kind.

James almost got into big trouble for his green Mohawk on St. Patrick's day. It was such a bummer of a day at school. They didn't get to do anything fun. I felt rebellious for him ;-).


Reading Time is Fun!!!

How does reading time at your house go? What a bunch of monkeys!!! I sure love that they love to read though!!!


James had to do a project at school on ecosystems. He had to pick one and make a 3D representation of it. He (of course) chose the rain forest. Good thing we are crafty at our house! He was one of the few that actually made, not bought, their animals. He had a good time doing it too!

Scorpion, 2 Snakes, Parrot, Frog, and of course a big spider.

I love the tic tac toe game! What a cute idea! Just letting you know that my blog isn't private anymore. I'll probably end up changing it back sometime but for now, I'll just leave it open. :) Thanks for talking with me today. most people avoid asking about my health. It's nice when people actually say something so thanks! You are wonderful!
