Been a while but today we did Earth Day things!
The kids were all in a very loving, helpful and good mood today.
We painted Earth's on a paper plate and told them the importance of keeping our Earth clean. This lead to them all yelling "MISS JENNA YOU CAN SAVE MY PLANET!!!" They all individually live on a different planet. Also Mexico is a planet to them.
For some reason this lead to them having a discussion about dinosaurs and how we didn't keep the Earth clean and that is why they died.
These kids have the craziest imaginations :)

April 3!
Today was pajama day at school to celebrate April Fools Day! The kids all dressed up in their jammies and we listened to Christmas music to feel a little more mixed up!
We worked on making their Easter baskets because Thursday we are dying eggs.
The kids and teachers also surprised me with a birthday card that they all signed themselves and a cake :)
It was so nice of them to do that I felt really appreciated!

Pinea Gigs!
Nothing eventful happened on Tues except painting bunnies and chicks so now I will proceed with my Thurs blog:
Pretty eventful day in the fact that we got a new guinea pig..sorta!
We got him from a friend of the teachers and she claimed that he was a she when actually it really was a he and we already had a female one so I'm just going to leave it at that XD
But we spent the whole first hour with the kids halfway in the guineas cages trying to feed the two of them as much lettuce as they could and trying to figure out girls names for it. Some of their favorites were Fluffy, Domio, Juliet and Snickers (the other one is already named that). I tried to convince them to name it Miss Jenna....they weren't buying it!
So now we are more confused as ever because their cages are large and two cages just don't work in the classroom :/
Finally got to read to the class today which is more like read a page and 10 hands shoot up asking questions or telling stories that have nothing to do with the book at all or the "I have to potty."
The one little girl showed me she could count to 100 and that was pretty much the entire day!
Tomorrow I am going with the Pre-K class to see the Wizard of Oz!! Should be a fun time :)

First Day of Spring!!!
First Day of Spring! It's finally here! We said goodbye to Mr. Winter and hello to warm weather!!
Small class today 3 were missing so the activities weren't that difficult. Colored a teddy bear coloring page for their letter books. Asking them to color to some of them is seriously such a difficult task. You would think we are killing them. We also painted flowers and made hand print flowers. Since it was so warm we went out for the remainder of the morning.
Today we decided to also tell them that one of the guinea pigs had died. When they asked what had happened to him we said he died of old age or he was sick we weren't sure. One of the little girls asked "Did he throw up??" The next 10 mins became a discussion of when they threw up. We said he's in Heaven and some of the kids were convinced that their parents were in Heaven. One kid said he had 4 children and one of them was in Heaven....still confused by those two things.

St. Patricks Day
Little late but...
Top O' the Morning To Ya!
Activities of the day included finding the Leprechaun! That was the only goal on the kids minds this day. They ran around in the hallway looking for him all morning!
For snack we attempted to make shamrock shakes...HUGE FAIL!!! The blender was leaking all over the place and to be honest the kids didn't enjoy them much. But the best was yet to come, during snack the teachers daughter and I went out to the playground and scattered "gold" (twix, chocolate coins, reeces) all over for the kids to collect. While they were outside we flipped the classroom around for just another one of the Leprechauns jokes.
Most of the kids were scared of the Leprechaun and the classic line of the day was "Do Leprechauns have claws???"
