See you on Tuesday!!

Some of our week

Hello again!  Here are some miscellaneous pictures of what we accomplished this week....

Zack helping out Josh in a center

Josh and Miss Connette at P.E.

Miss Aimee and Josh at King's Kids

Lucie practicing her motor skills

Josh and Mrs. Mendez having a ball at computers

Just for Fun!

Mrs. Sumner has become addicted to Pinterest!  Look at this awesome activity we did today.

First we filled up a bin with shaving cream.

Then we smoothed it out.

Next, we added acrylic paint.  Josh chose blue.

Lucie chose pink.

Once we had all of our favorite colors...

We each took turns swirling it around with our pointers.

Then, we added our seahorses.

 

 

 

After that, Joshua's daddy saved the day by bringing us a squeegee to wipe all of the extra paint and shaving cream off.  Thank you, Mr. Davis! You will get to see the finished products on Back to School Night!

The gang!

 

On the Move!

It's getting harder and harder to squeeze the pictures in, but I know that everyone wants to see bits and pieces of our day, so I promise that I will do my best!  We are getting our very tight schedule down, and I am amazed at how much learning is already taking place.  One of our best "stress relievers" is to go over to the King's Kids room for about 15 minutes and shake the wiggles out.  Here are some of our favorite things to do.

Zack is king of the hill while playing catch with Shawn.

Lucie smiles for Mrs. Sumner with her amazing criss cross applesauce pose.

Miss Ragone and Josh go for a swing.

Shawn plays catch (so fast that Mrs. Sumner cannot get a picture that isn't blurry! )

 

 

 

 

 

We are so blessed to be at CCA.  There are so many exciting places to visit each day.  We need to remember to thank Jesus everyday for His gift!

1st Week Under our Belt!

We made it through the first week of school!  Today we had some extra-special activities.

Starting off the day with Miss Ragone leading a brain gym

Tricky moves!

Ending the time with prayer

Math with Miss Ragone

Reading and visualizing and verbalizing with Mrs. Sumner

Ship to shore with our favorite coaches-Joshua was the shark!

Hit the Deck!

Shawn is the lookout...

We also went to our first chapel together (but Mrs. Sumner forgot to take pictures until it was over).  I will get some next time.  

God has been so good to us this week. He has put us all together and we cannot even imagine getting to spend our days with a more precious group of kids.  

Next week we will be getting down to business as our schedule will be confirmed and hopefully our art and computer tables come in.  

Enjoy the weekend and we can't wait to see you all again on Monday!

Our first day together

WOW!  Today was so exciting that I don't know where to start! We learned about our new classroom and got to know our new friends.  We went on a treasure hunt and do you know where we finally found the treasure???  It was in Mrs. Walker's office!  Everyone was so glad to meet us. Here are some pictures....

Welcome to the 2013-2014 School Year!

 

What a joy it was to meet each one of you today!  Miss Ragone, Mrs. Combs, and myself (Mrs. Sumner)  are so excited to spend our days with you this school year!  We have so many exciting activities planned.  Get lots of rest tomorrow and we will see you bright and early Wednesday morning!
