Puzzle Kids!

Putting this 100 piece puzzle together was nothing for these puzzle kids! It took two Choice Times, but they did it!
Cool dinosaur!


We are becoming Minnesota Experts!

The Minnesota State Rock is the agate. We looked at some real agates.Then we wrote the words for our Minnesota Book.
Then we painted our own agates. We were very careful and they turned out AWESOME!

Last, we cut the agates out and glued them in our books.

We learned that our state bird is the Loon. We watched and heard some loons on youtube.com before we made our own loon. We talked about where a loon would be happy to live. Next we colored that setting in our Minnesota Book.

Mud, mud, everywhere!

We read a book about mud and then read a poem with the same words. After we circled all of our Lifetime Words, we each illustrated our own poem. We are awesome at drawing!Here is TJ's before he added the mud with brown paint.

There are lots of visitors with their pets.Sick animals everywhere!
How much will that cost? Worth it!
Medicine and food for this one.

Robins!

In March, we read some books about robins. We were also on the look out at home to see if we could spot any in our yards! Almost everyone saw one right away! Then we made our own robins to celebrate SPRING!See that piece of gummy worm in the robin's mouth?
Guess where the rest of the gummy worm went? YUM!

Having fun at Choice Time!


We LOVE going to the Computer Lab!
