Rain, Rain, Go Away!

We have had a very raining winter here in Maine and we'd love some snow to play in before winter is finished. A few of us are happy to see the rain because it is a sign of spring and then summer! This morning we had our morning meeting and played "Pass the Chicken", a fun game played with a rubber chicken we've named: Bacon Gravy. Then we had our Book Club time. Some of us are reading "The Cricket in Times Square" others are reading, "There's an Owl in the Shower" which sounds like a comedy but isn't! The rest of us are reading books like: "Charlotte's Web", "Judy Moody Saves the World", "My Father's Dragon" and "Cam Jansen". We love our book clubs, because we get to read with friends and some of us are doing our work on the computer! This afternoon we are making mosiacs in a special art class - we are really excited for this project! Our art work will be hanging in the school for years to come.
