It's been a cold long January. We are sorry we haven't posted in a while. Here are some fun pictures from our activities in late December and early January. Stay warm!

Decker Farms


We kicked off our new Social Studies unit of study: Families - Then and Now with a trip to Decker Farms.  We were able to explore a real working farm to see how families lived and worked over 100 years ago.  We compared the differences in the conveniences of today's technologies with the hand made tools of yesterday.  We completed our trip by picking a pumpkin from the pumpkin patch and then taking a hayride around the property.  


Watching Farmer Harry demonstrate how farm tools were used.









Ling and Selina's first hayride!
