Meet Penelope!

Here's is my newest little friend in Kindergarten:





Her name is Penelope and she is THE sweetest little hedgie ever.  All of my kinders were able to pet her on the first day I brought her to school.  They even started writing books about her during Daily 5 and Writer's Workshop.  (Please know, though, that hedgies are a lot of work and not all of them are so friendly.  Even Penelope has her moments.  I did a lot of research before getting her.)

This week we also enjoyed our Kinder Splash Day.  What a blast!







Yay for fun in the sun!

I am not sure how all of you are feeling, but I am so tired and stressed - yet I can't sleep...sigh...  Our last day is May 31 and THERE IS SO MUCH TO DO!  On top of all the end of the year to-do's, I am also being recorded this coming Tuesday by our Central Administration for a video they are putting together for a PD course this fall.  Wowzer.  Cross your fingers that my kinder cuties can hold it together for thirty minutes.  We'll see how it goes.

Happy weekend friends!

  5. Penelope looks very nice. The only hedgehog I have met was one of the unfriendly ones I suppose. Happy almost summer!
