                                                                 "Bubble Art"

I tried this art project with my students. We put food
coloring in bubbles and blew them on paper. It ended up
very messy and we had food coloring all over the
sidewalk outside the school but, the kids had a great time and I think they turned out great!

 

Science Experiment!

Diet Coke + Mentos = EXCITEMENT!!!

We did this science experiment and the kids LOVED it!!!

Walk in the Park

This is the park across the street from us. We enjoy walking over there and sitting on the benches or sticking our feet in the ponds!

Labor Day Weekend!

We have had an enjoyable Labor day weekend. It has been nice to just relax and get geared up for another week of work and school!

On Friday night we had some friends over for ice cream and had a nice visit.

Saturday Darrin and I went to the Cincinnati Premium Outlets and did some birthday shopping for my dad and sister. We also walked around "The Greene." It is just like the Gateway but much bigger. We sat and watched kids run through the fountains and listened to the band they had playing. We also ate at the Cheesecake factory.

Sunday we had a great day at church. I was called as the primary secretary and we enjoyed a nice "Break the Fast" dinner after with ward members.

Monday morning was spent running a 5K with our ward! Darrin and I crossed the finish line in 24 minutes....okay so it was not a real 5K. The course ended up being a little less than 3 miles. We won the "Dynamic Duo Award" because we ran the whole thing together! :) We also enjoyed a breakfast after with our ward memebers.

Just up the street from where we live they are having a festival. We enjoyed walking around the booths this morning and Darrin loved looking at the car show that they had!

The Burnham Case

Darrin was reading some of his cases last night and found this case in his book....

We thought it was pretty funny!

Foil Creations!

This is what you get when you have 20 kindergarten through fourth graders and tinfoil!

With this before and after school program that I am working at, we try to come up with creative activities for them to do. Well, my sisters had made these before and they all thought that my students would be able to handle this project....it was a total mess....I was grateful when we ran out of tinfoil so the project would end! :)
They did come up with some very creative ideas and I was proud of all of them! Enjoy some of our creations!!
