We celebrated the 100th Day of school by getting 100th Day Brag Tags (compliments of ImageStuff) and  making adorable hats.

Doesn't the class look smarter than they did 100 days ago? :-)

We Love Penguins!

This week we have been reading about penguins. We started reading Mr. Popper's Penguins and today we used Time for Kids and Penguin Chicks to look at the habitat, life, and characteristics of penguins in Antarctica.
