Snowy Day!


Looking out one of our class windows.


The playground.



The whole gang hanging out in the snow.



Pure joy!







I had to get in at least one picture!





Chilly, but so much fun!
Craziness at Kaufman





Boys will be boys.


Mrs. Adams and Mrs. Martin. I think we liked it more than the kids.

Brrrrr, it's cold!


Happy boys playing in the snow.



Silly girls playing in the snow.

What an exciting day! We actually saw snow at Kaufman Elementary! There were a few times during the day that we took the kids outside to play in the snow. We just couldn't resist. We had so much fun! It will be a day to remember!

This week we are studying synonyms and we talked about a Thesaurus. There is an online thesaurus that I showed the students and some were asking for the address so they could go there at home.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We had our feast today at lunch. We enjoyed Lil Smokies, cheese, crackers, fruit, cornbread, and pumpkin pie! Everyone was dressed in vests and headdresses that we made yesterday. During the month of November we studied the Pilgrims and Native Americans. We wrote journals, letters and even two turkey stories. One of our stories was about what we are thankful for. I just want to say that I am VERY thankful for all of my wonderful students and their families. We are able to do things like our feast because of our amazing Kaufman families. Thank you to all the moms, dads, grandparents and friends who help make our events so memorable. I hope you all have a very relaxing Thanksgiving. Enjoy the slide show!

We won!

A few weeks ago there was a contest in the cafeteria to see who could eat the most servings of fruits and vegetables in a week. One of my awesome students turned in their paper and won! We received a beautiful fruit basket and we will be getting shirts! Here we are with our fruit basket! I took it all home, cut it up and we will be enjoying it very soon!
