Dental Health Month.....

 Today we made a cute little craft for Dental Health Month!!!  It says "I can brush my teeth"  The kids got to add the teeth into the mouth!!!!  They turned out so cute!!!  I can't wait to hang them in the hallway!!!

Name Building



Today a few of the kids built name out of our abc puzzle.....using their imagination they came up with this by themselves....they quickly figured out that they couldn't use names where the letters repeated.  I was very impressed I didn't have to tell them how to spell one name they just figured it out!!!!! 
 
They are so clever!!!!!
