  • Gaby visited the middle school today!
  • Everybody is learning to sing Kumbayah, a traditional song. Students add their own words to the song and act them out if they can. The favorite line so far seems to be "Someone's running, Lord, kumbayah..."
  • Each grade level has learned about how to grow a seed this year. Kids should be able to tell their families how to plant and raise a bean, a tree, or a pumpkin.
  • Classes are learning about different native Americans. Each tribe has some shared customs and living patterns. However, tribes can be quite different from each other. For example, some live in longhouses, others live in wigwams, tipis or pueblos.
  • The kindergarten children had many new things to show off today. We took time to admire everybody's new things. Azul had a new Tinkerbell lunchbox, Lupita showed off her sparkly pink top, both Angels not only have similar names, they have the exact same kind of shoes, too!
