Back to School

Today I hurry off to school,
To work and learn and play
I'm in a brand new grade this year.
What a happy day!!!!!

The children have enjoyed getting to know each other over the last couple weeks with the 'Back to School' and 'Friends & Family' theme.

During the 1st week, we made a pencil for Fun Food Friday.

During the 2nd week, we made a Friendship Salad.  Each family brought in an ingredient for the salad.  The children really enjoyed the assortment of tastes!!

Show & Tell

The children loved sharing pictures of their family with their friends!

What a Wonderful Year...

What a wonderful year 2013-14 has been at ABC School!  We have seen so many changes with our kids.  We have some that will be moving on and will forever be in our hearts and some that we will be blessed to have another year.  Here are a few more pics from our year...

Fields of Strawberries

Each year, ABC takes the children on a field trip to a Strawberry farm in May.  We had so much fun this year.  The weather was delightful and the fields were plentiful!

Easter

The kids enjoyed many Easter activities before they left for a long Spring Break!!!  

They sorted eggs,

had an egg toss,

 ...and they went on an Easter Egg hunt!

February, March....so many themes!!!

We started off February by learning about Groundhog day, then we celebrated the much LOVED holiday of Valentine's Day.  The children brought in Valentine's Day cards for their friends and passed them out.

In March, we learned about Dental Health and Community Helpers.

 Brushing a tooth with shaving cream.  Great sensory time!!!

 Our 'Fish' dressed up as Community Helpers! 

 Playing Doctor!

 Show & Tell time with Community Helper Items

Fun Food Friday

We made a stoplight out of rice krispie treats and M&Ms.  YUM!!

Next, we learned about the weather.  And the weather has been interesting at ABC this month; snow, ice, rain, sun....
