Winding down

We had a bridal shower for a co-worker this past week.  Here are all the teachers and aids that I work with each morning.  This is definately a special group of ladies.  It's been a memorable year at work this year.

Since the weather has been fantastic, we have been playing outdoors everyday after school.  The boys new game is bey blades......glorified spinning tops.  They battle it out at the end of the slide.

The girls play in the trees and found 5 new baby birds.  Here they all showed up with the same toy.

Here are the battling bey blades.....last one left spinning wins.

For teacher appreciation day, I stayed with Tara's class while her teacher took an extended lunch.

It's been an up and down year for Tara in that portable....at times: floods, ants, air and lights and toilet  not working, having to walk extra distances in the cold and hot weather, but, she's made it through.

Tara spend the last two weeks in art club making plates and prints.  Here are a few things she came up with.



This was Emily's newest creation with her melty beads.  Looks like the subtle hints are sinking in.

Bey blades are taking over around here. Have you seen the tv show? Emma watched it once with the boys and came into the kitchen rolling her eyes, "It is exactly the same as Pokemon except they treat these little pieces of metal like they're their children!"
