TUESDAY 10-13-09
We watched a short video on the Smart Board about the American Flag and what the colors and the symbols on the flag mean. Then, each of us created on our flags which are now on display in our classroom.

We also learned that one of the largest alligators was almost 20 feet long. The photo below of the 5 children lined up head-to-toe showed us how long 20 feet would be.
Today we celebrated Josie's 5th birthday with her. Josie's mom read the story, "The Runaway Pancake" and then we enjoyed chocolate cupcakes for snack. Happy Birthday, Josie!
We had a community helper visit us today--Charlie T's dad who is a home builder. An interesting fact that we learned today was that every time a builder chops down a tree for its wood, he/she must plant 5 trees. Below are some photos of his visit with us.
