Here are a few of the new things I was able to purchase after receiving a $500 EduCare Grant, a $50 gift card from Home Depot, and $550 matching funds from our PTA.  The kids are busy working together to discover all kinds of new things.  Thank you to the EduCare Foundation, Home Depot, and own very own Hoover PTA!!!

This is a Wubble Bubble!

 Here are lots of costumes to help us role play in different drama play areas.

After reading Goldilocks and the Three Bears, we designed, built, and tested our beds to see if they could hold our "Goldilock's" weight.  

 We were paleontologists today!  We had to dig bones out of our fossils.  It is much harder than it sounds!  Really we dug chocolate chips out of cookies and then we got to eat them :-)

We learned more about bridge building today.  Two index cards will only hold 10 cubes, but if you glue them together they will hold 150 cubes.  Three index cards glued together will hold more than 250 cubes and our 3 billy goats :-)
