Mother's Day 2010

Our Mother's Day Celebration was a hit. Each of the classrooms made a Strawberry Truffle with the children. (Thanks Debbie for the receipe).

Cinco de Mayo

Dale, dale dale

No pierdas el tino

Por que si lo pierdes

Pierdes el camino
Ya le diste uno

Ya le diste dos

Ya le diste tres

Y tu tiempo se acabo
English Translation:

Hit it, hit it, hit it

Don't lose your aim

Because if you lose it

You will lose your way
You hit it once

You hit it twice

You hit it three times

And your time is up

Week of the Young Child

During Week of the Young Child we had several activities going on throughout the week. We began with a school picnic. We also had crazy hair day. This is our teacher Darcie who is a blond with her crazy hair on.

2010 Spring Carnival

Step by Step held their Spring Carnival on Saturday, April 17th. Everyone had a wonderful time playing the games at the booths. The children were able to turn their tickets in for prizes at the prize center. The prizes included anything from toys to Mc Donald gift certificates to live goldfish.

Youngest American Idol

At Step by Step (Nessa’s school) fundraiser on Saturday, she picked up the mike and started singing (no prompting from us at all…she thinks she can sing…it’s from watching too much American Idol). She usually just kind of yells when she sings, but will sometimes break into a more gentle sing song type of song as she's doing here. It was really cute. Everybody stopped to listen which encouraged her to sing louder and more!! It took an army to get that mike out of her hand :o)

Pre-K Recipe for how to make a Snowman

3 packs of snow

2 buttons

1 scarf

1 hat

2 mittens

2 boots

10 rocks

1 belt
2 sticks

3 buttons

First you make a big ball of snow then you do another medium size ball and put it on the big one. Make a little ball and put it on the medium one. Next you have to put the scarf around the head. Use the carrot for the nose and the hat on the head. Put the buttons for the shirt and put the eyes under the hat. Put the mouth under the nose. Next put on arms and the mittens. Then put the broom next to his hands. Put the boots at the bottom of the big ball. We put the belt on his bottom.
