Native American Interest

Mia loves Native Americans and she is fascinated with Sacagawea and her travels with the Lewis and Clark Expedition. To make the tepee, Mia collected sticks, tied them together at the top, set them in the ground and wrapped a sheet around them. The weather outside has been really nice but today there was a cold wind and she was amazed how warm it kept her.

She also made one for her brother.

SUPER Socks!!!

Basketball came to an end on Saturday. Mia discovered that she could run faster and jump higher when she wears her super socks. She did really well on defense. Quick hands and fast feet! Mia is #5, red team, with the tall striped socks.



See...she really is fast!

The Bagel Shop

Welcome to Mia's Bagel Shop!

Yesterday we had a blast! Mia wanted to start a project and I felt like baking bagels. Soooo... as a result she created her own bagel shop. She made a menu with tasty items, ie. pizza bagel for $3.00 and a list of drinks. She created a logo, designed the menu and made a wonderful sign for our back door. When that was finished we made the bagels! They were so good! When dad came home she invited him to sit down, gave him the menu and took his order on a restaurant ordering pad that I picked up from a school supply shop. What a happy day!

Last Day of PE
