Yesterday was Polar Express Day!

All week we are working on the theme "The Polar Express" We are doing Polar Express writing, math centers, literacy centers, and crafts! But yesterday, we got to wear pajamas, drink hot cocoa, and eat candy, just like the kids in the book The Polar Express! The whole day was a blast as the kids enjoyed the movie on their very on "train."

On Tuesday, we got to work with our reading buddies from 4th grade! We worked on some plump and perky turkeys and then read to each other. It was a blast!

Happy Election Day!!

Yesterday and today we discussed the President, his (or her!) jobs, and today's election.  We read about Barack Obama and Mitt Romney and then held our own mock election!

One little guy, when asked what the President does, said to me, "The President speaks to the Union." I loved it!
