El Dia de Los Muertos

We learned about Dia de las Muertos, and made amazing "sugar skulls" to represent the cultural celebration. They turned out awesome. 

Summer Birthdays & Icecream Party

I was always a summer baby so I never got to celebrate my birthday at school. I decided to do a "summer birthday" celebration, and boy did they feel the love!

Also, because they have been so "sweet" I threw them an icecream party, with the help of my sweet husband, "Mr. Ramirez."

What a Week!

Black History Research

I am impressed that my 1st graders used books and the Internet to research famous African Ameicans. They researched and worked together in groups/pairs to create a poster. I was so impressed! Check it out.
