Presidents of the Past

Wow, well you will never guess where I am writing this weeks blog from...give up???  The hospital of course...I was admitted Thursday after school for a severe case of Pancreatitis.  I have been here for three days on a wonderful diet of ice chips that I spent hours begging for.  I hope to be released Sunday (cross my fingers) and back to school on Monday.  I am happy so many of our class parents work here, I have had lots of company.  Miss Jen has been living up here too (her husband has been battling cancer this year and he was having one of his final surgeries-it went well).  Needless to say, this type of thing better stop happening or we will have to start holding the Pre K class in one of the local hospitals...  :-)

This week was a short week, but that didn't stop us from learning all about our countries past presidents. 

We focused most of our time on two of the greatest presidents our nation has ever seen...George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.  We learned about some of the great things they did for our country and that we can find their images in lots of places...Mount Rushmore, coins and currency.

Next week we will be learning all about Dr. Seuss (my favorite children's author of all time).  I can't wait!!!

Please check your child's Thursday folder for more information about our field trip to the Cinepointe 6 movie theatre next Friday at 11:00 AM.  This field trip is always a favorite for the parents and children.  Our hope is to see Wreck it Ralph, with Hotel Transylvania as our back up.  Please remember to return your envelope with your desire to attend or not marked by Wednesday.
