School Update with Groundhogs

Hard to believe but another week of school has come and gone. Carter was happy to get back to a full week of school after missing a session to due to a snow day last week. We have been lucky so far this winter and have only had one class cancelled because of the weather. This week was about groundhogs and the religion theme was Jesus blesses the Children. In addition to their groundhog inspired crafts the class also worked on Valentines decorations and making their Valentine boxes for their upcoming party.

Carter painted this guy during Thursday's class. His painting skills really impress me....even more impressive is the amount of time he will stay still if painting is involved.
The groundhog says it all....six more weeks of winter.

I know some of you were hoping for news that spring was on the way early.

Carter especially loves craft time at school and is very proud of everything that he makes.

Happy little snowman. He was posted on the hallway bulletin board for the last few weeks.

This snowflake hung from the classroom ceiling making the room into a winter wonderland. Like snowflakes that fall from the sky, each child's flake was different and beautiful and crafted from their individual hand prints.
