Mini Fruit Pizza

We sliced cookie dough. We mixed cream cheese, vanilla, and powdered sugar. While the cookies baked and cooled we played Toy Story 3 Fruit & Vegetable Bingo. It is a new game with a video component and it looks promising to play again. We spread the cream cheese mixture on top of the cooled cookies and chose fruit to put on top. Cherries, oranges, bananas, apples. Some of us ate this; some of us did not. It is the process of making that is important.

We played in the gym at recess today. Rainy outside. Swimming tomorrow with a bus ride for the return trip. YEA!

Everybody sing this song!

Our reading buddies came this afternoon. We were introduced to the new penguin character, PINGU. He's a funny guy and and funny things happen when he's around. This is a link to see PINGU: www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-tHHJbSVl0&feature=related

We all made pictures of PINGU and put a hat on his head to keep him warm. We watched a story of PINGU snowboarding. We might write our own PINGU story!

We were all so HAPPY to be back together again! Some of us were a little silly. We miss our school routine when we don't have it for 5 days! It was a good break, but it's good to be back on a schedule.

We introduced the guuided reading book, At the Market, this morning. Other books with the themes of shopping, fruits, and vegetables will also be read. Tomorrow at cooking we will make mini fruit pizzas.
