Cheering On Our Second Grade Friends

We have had a great time surprising our second grade friends in Mrs. Vickers' Class this week.  We wanted to wish them well on the OLSAT test that they took.  We made a video for them, hung a sign in their classroom, and put treats on their desks each morning.  It's never too early to learn how to do random acts of kindness!

January's 100 Book Club

We got to celebrate with these friends for reaching their 100 Book Club goals!  Look who earned a ring pop for reading 75 book!

Alison also met her goal of reading 100 books!  She earned her ribbon, certificate and she got to spend the day sitting in the reading chair.

A Visit From Samuel

Something super exciting happened this morning...we got to Skype with Samuel!  This was the first time that we had gotten to visit with him since he moved to Africa.  Samuel told us all about living in Africa.  He showed us his new home and where he goes to school.  We were amazed that his school didn't have any walls and that it was right outside of his house.  Samuel told us that even though it was morning for us, that he had already eaten dinner and was about to go to bed.  It was so awesome to talk to Samuel.  

I hope that we will be able to Skype with him again on Thursday before he goes to language school to learn Swahili.
