Working Together Is Better

Today we talked about how we are going to work together as a team! We are going to become very familiar with Habit 7: Synergize! We worked hard on this diplay in the hall!

Here are the students decorating pennants for our TEAM!

They did a fantastic job! Go TEAM COON!!!

Mrs. Coon's last big thing before school starts tomorrow!

Today we celebrated Patton and Smith's birthdays at Mallard Farms! We had a blast! The children enjoyed the two potbelly pigs!
Smith's favorite part was the kayake.

The children also went out in a canoe.

The children also did some fishing off the pier.

Patton's favorite part was the horse riding.

Their birthday cake for the party.

Here is the first fish caught today! It was HUGE!

Smitty enjoyed playing with the worms more than fishing. YUCK!

Here are the birthday boys striking a pose!

The boys and girls had fun riding the zipline, too!

It was a hot day, but everyone still had so much fun!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PATTON AND SMITH!
