School Holiday Parties

Celebrating Grinch day!

Ready for her holiday party

Almost twinsies with her teacher! 

With her friend, Ella 

My holiday party was different - we had a buffet of snacks, including a chocolate fondue fountain!!! While we ate our snacks, we watched The Grinch

What we're doing in school...

Learning about economics - someone from Edward Jones came to speak about investing. 

Gingerbread houses! 

School & Field Trip Photos

 1st Grade field trip to Kaleidoscope

Kalia had a blast because it was all arts & crafts - her favorite!

Practicing my spelling words 

We studied a unit on electricity and had to make an apartment room with one source of electricity. My partner & I were given the living room with a working ceiling fan. Then we had to create a pamphlet to advertise to a potential renter.

I passed all of my math goals! 

The Kansas City mayor, Quinton Lucas, came for a visit and to talk to us. This was really cool! 

Halloween

Yes, this is Hallowen 2019...fortunately for Mom & Dad, both Kalia & I wanted to wear the same costume that we wore last year! So here's a t-rex and black cat:

We ventured out with the neighbors...

and the moms were ready!

I didn't stay out too long...I thought it was much more important to be home by 7 to watch Thursday night football. Haha! 

Kalia stayed out a bit longer with her friend, Vivian, then came home with all her "goods"! 

We picked through our candy and kept a few of our favorites, then loaded everything up back in the bucket and sent it to school for the teacher's lounge (Kalia's idea)!
