Union Terminal

We took our first field trip of the year to Omnimax to see Lewis and Clark as a followup to reading Lewis & Clark & Me earlier this year. While at Union Terminal, students also investigated the many offerings of the Natural History and Science Museum. Reports from parents and students alike stated that a good time (with lots of educational value) was had by all.

Super Sweet Class

This is just to let anyone who reads this know how sweet my students are. My family and I lost a beloved member of our family on Tuesday, our 12 year Golden Retriever/Lab mix Sam. On their way to library, each one of the children gave me a hug. While in library and music, their teachers generously allowed them time to create and sign a sympathy card to help me get through my sorrow. For the rest of that day and then into today, the children were on their best behavior. For their kind words and gestures, I would like to thank my students and their parents who have obviously brought them up to be caring individuals.
