WE VOTED!!!!!!!!!!!! ELECTION DAY 2012



Today Pre-K had a mini mock ELECTION it was so much fun!!!!  The first thing we did was signed in the voting station....we all had to find our name and then we had to write our name beside our voter name!!!!  Next we went over to the voting booth and circled who we wanted to be the President!!!!  We did this so no one could see our vote!!! Next we folded our vote and placed it in the  ballot box!!!!  The kids had so much fun and even though they are young and couldn't care less who wins president it is still fun watching them get excited and knowing that they have a voice!!!!! 
 
Next we took all the votes out and counted them.....we had 19 votes 1 person was absent this morning!!
 
Then we counted all the votes for OBAMA he had 7 votes!
Then we counted all the votes for ROMNEY he had 12 votes!
 
We learned that 12 is more than 7!!!!  I guess we will see if we were right in the days to come!
 
I hope everyone is going to the polls today to place their votes!!!!!

Remind 101 and Cute Pic

I got this info off of Mrs. Hardin's blog next door and it sounds like such a great tool!!!!!
 
Make sure you sign up!!!
 
 Remind 101 is a FREE fantastic communication tool for parents and teachers!
It utilizes technology to inform parents at the same time. I'm not always at my desk, so this is a great way for me to send reminders from my phone or iPad.
This works great for the night before picture day, field trips, curriculum nights, open house, seasonal plays, etc. Who doesn’t need a reminder? I will still use email and blog. This is just another resource. :)
I love this pic of Davis.....today he was playing in the Science center and he came up and wanted to look!!!!  HOW STINKIN CUTE IS THAT!!!?!?!?!?!?
 
He then wanted to see my eyes, nose, tongue.....my pores haha!!!!
 
Today we also started making a really cute craft for our Thanksgiving unit!!!!
