This Week, 2/1-2/5/10

This week we learned about fire and enjoyed the story of the fire fairy. It rained, rained, rained, so we were inside a lot! We welcomed a new friend, Isabella. Elijah's father, Anthony, joined our school to help with cooking and afternoons in the classroom. Monday we painted fires, Tuesday we drew with beeswax, Wednesday we baked bread and Thursday we painted hearts to hang in our trees outside next week!
