class time fun!

i cannot remember what the kids were working on here but it's a very cute photo nonetheless...

we talked about different flags from around the world, focusing on the american and peruvian flags. the kids studied and compared each flag before coloring their own.

i gave the kids postcards from peru with a peruvian coin attached which the kids had fun studying. i went through some photos from my trip and talked about the different types of animals, food and traditions i saw.

leroy made a short guest appearance at school which was a special surprise for the kids. there was a lot of excitement among everyone (that could be heard throughout the building i'm sure!)...

theo working on our version of an orange and clove pomander...

marlowe working in style (his stella mccartney for gap jacket garnered a lot of attention from the adults!)...

marlowe made this marker tower on his own volition- and even mastered coloring with it!

sonny working on his animal feeder...

fiona using our new class whiteboard to practice her writing skills...

i laminated some alphabet cards so the kids could practice writing their upper and lowercase letters...
