PM Acts Out Story at Briarwood

One of the things we did to entertain the residents at Briarwood just before Halloween was to act out the story The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid Of Anything. The residents seemed to have as much fun watching as we did performing.

Afternoon Class Sings at Briarwood

Although we go to Briarwood about twice each month, this trip was special. We sang a song, acted out a story, and read books that we colored to the residents. The most amazing thing - the residents were all in costumes when we arrived.

Morning Class Performs at Ely Manor

I hope you enjoy video of the morning class singing and acting out a story at Ely Manor. We had a great time performing, reading to the residents, and eating wonderful snacks - donuts, cookies, pretzels, and cider - WOW!

Learning Centers

We learned about bats at Mrs. Rogers' center,made goldfish art projects with Mrs. Cady,
and did simple addition and subtraction in a pumpkin patch math game. A student in each group stepped up and played the role of teacher when the scheduled helper mom was not able to come today. Mrs. Rogers was really, really, really proud of her little teachers!!!!!
