Good afternoon! We have had a great day. It was nice to be able to get back outside again today. We met our next BEAR Essentials Goal and will be celebrating with some free time tomorrow! We learned a new math game today about trading using base 10 blocks. They loved it! I think mostly because I had to pull out the overhead projector and they were fascinated. To think I was using it primarily just 5 years ago. Wow, how times have changed. Also I am wanting to add a new game to our word study time to work on our high frequency words. If anyone would be willing to donate a Candy Land Game that would be great. I know Wal-Mart had them for around $5.00 and I would need at least two. That would allow for 8 children to play at a time.  Don't feel like you have to, I know you all have been so AWESOME with our silent auction basket this year and I don't want to be asking to much. So perhaps someone might donate one and I could get the other. Again thanks for all you do each and every day!!!
