A Day in the Life of Addy

"At home nail salon, writing a letter for a friend, and volcano creations!"

Look at you, Addy!  Those nails and that volcano are super cool!  I love that you're writing a letter to a friend...that is very thoughtful of you!

More V Word Lists and Daily Reflections

Fantastic list, Graham!  And I LOVED seeing your volcano videos as well...so cool how they erupted like that!  I particularly liked the Lego guy scaling the top of the volcano!

***bonus points to anyone who can help me download videos to this blog account...it doesn't seem to take to videos so well...***

Look at that awesome list!  And that handwriting!  Way to go, Drew!

Pancakes for dinner?!?!?!  You lucky ducks!

"For daily reflection today, Emily said when someone kicks her it makes her mad. 

The other picture is her and Brennan who made pancakes for dinner last night. All I did was melt the butter, tell them what measurements to use, and monitor them. But really they were pretty independent!"

Ernest and Fam Make Bagels!

Nice work, Dunston family!  Those bagels look scrumptious! 

Letter V Word Lists and Daily Reflection

Look at that word list, Ernest!  Way to go!



Nice job, Sophia!  I always forget just how many words there are out there that start with our letter of the week.  Thank goodness we have each other to share :)

Thanks for sharing your V word list and daily reflection, Emily!  I love broccoli too!  Lima beans, not so much :)  What a healthy eater you are!

Karaoke and Birthday Shenanigans!

"Eamonn worked on some more letters and fun math games in the morning.  Then he had an hour long karaoke dance party with his brother in the basement!  To finish the afternoon, we visited Miss Charlie on her special day!!  Happy 5th Birthday, Charlie!"

Oh my goodness...the Keogh brothers on the mic!  I love everything about this :)  And Happiest of Birthdays to our dear Charlie!

Eamonn the Magna-Tile and Mac 'n Cheese Master!

"Magna-tiles (rocket, houses and space vehicle) and Tech Decks for the win!  Also Eamonn is very interested in helping us cook these days!  Tonight was Annie’s Penne Mac & Cheese."

Look at those amazing magna-tile structures!  Way to go, Eamonn and Liam!  I can't wait to get back in our classroom and start building with you all again :)

Raylan the Scientist!

"We did two experiments to learn about density (water is heavier than foam) and the water cycle.  The foam experiment was originally to illustrate the water cycle (Pinterest Fail!); however Raylan turned it around by observing the water: foam density!"

These science experiments are so cool, Raylan!  When we get back to preschool, you can teach us everything that you've learned while at home!

Eamonn's Fun Weekend :)

"The Keoghs enjoyed a family dance party Saturday night and dinner in the camper!   On Sunday we enjoyed a 2 mile bike ride in our neighborhood!  Eamonn so close to losing his training wheels!  We rode to the VT Fish & Wildlife Conservation Dept property and found some fun trails to bike and hike!"

What a fun and BUSY weekend, Eamonn!  I love seeing your smiling face and you doing some great things with your family!   

Ernest's Baking Endeavor!

Ernest, his Dad and his brother Lorenzo bake some delicious dinner rolls.  They look so yummy!

Mirabelle's Adventures!

"Attached are a few photos of Mira’s latest adventures: 

She did the color by number activity, the alphabet scavenger hunt, and was interested in some measuring. The last photo was taken by the stream near Essex Pediatrics. She loves riding her bike there and throwing rocks into the stream! She also liked climbing on the pylons with Daddy’s help!"

Look at all that hard work, Mira!  Way to go!  And I love seeing that big, beautiful smile of yours :)

The BEST Friday Ever!

"Today we made Cinnamon Bread French Toast! We practiced some letter tracing while Big brother did his school work.  We also decorated a sign for the wonderful Hiawatha teachers while they drove around our neighborhoods for a teacher parade!  It was amazing!  We miss all of our teachers so very much!  Then, we ended the day baking homemade chocolate chip cookies!"

Wow, Eamonn, what a lucky little dude you are!  You had the best Friday ever!
