A Special Visit

Roman's dad recently returned from serving in Afghanistan and paid a very special visit to our classroom on Tuesday afternoon. He came with artifacts, pictures, stories, and even a taste of a MRE, a real meal he would eat when deployed. We got to try crackers with a cheese spread and a chocolate/peanut butter spread... not bad! :)

THANK YOU MARK for visiting and for SERVING our country!

Cecropia!

Isaac's family found a very unusual looking caterpillar at their home, in a Maple Tree, about 7 months ago. They researched it, took pictures, and nurtured it until it hatched in his mom's 1st grade classroom. It turned out to be a very rare CECROPIA moth. Mrs. Charlton brought it to our classroom last Friday afternoon and it was amazing; the pictures really don't do justice. It was huge, and the sad part is, they only live for 4-5 days. Some of you may have seen it while visiting for lunch in the classroom. Take a peek at this link for more fun facts: 




Lunch in the Classroom: April 27

Thank you for joining us for our first lunch in the classroom! Take a peek at some pictures that were snapped while you were here! Hope to see you at our next and last one on Friday, May 18!
