Montessori Internship Update

For the past 6 months I have been interning at the kids school while keeping my job at the College. It has been busy but I am enjoy teaching and being at my children's school.  It is an amazing school and it is lovely seeing my kids working and so happy at their sweet school.

Here is a couple of pictures of the classroom I am in.

This is a very big classroom.  There are two lower elementary classrooms in this school.  Lower Elementary for us is ages 6-9, 1st level - 3rd level, 1st grade - 3rd grade.  The other classroom for this age group is not as big but just as lovely and specifically made for that age.  This school was designed for a Montessori School so every classroom was designed with kitchens, tall ceilings, lots of windows and a porch for children to work at.

Here I am on the porch giving a Botany lesson.

Happy New Year!

We are all doing very well.  Enjoying our holiday vacation with family and friends.

Wishing all of you a very Happy New Year!  

Back to School!

This year I am at the kids school half days Monday-Friday.  We love being together!

I will post about my Internship later!

Ready for the first day of school!

The kids school got goats this year.  Very exciting!

And big boy is starting in ta Toddler classroom half days next week.  We have been waiting for him to walk well.  I am so excited for him.  He just loves to be around people.

Kids summer work

The kids put a lot of hours reading this summer and even some math and geography work.  Even Daddy did some science experiments with them.
We are a week away from school starting!

Here is some of their summer work.  I know I had more pictures, I just can't seem to be able to get organized with Blog pictures.   Very frustrating.  The kids have also been working on math facts, sweet boy has worked with the division and multiplication boards, and bella with the stamp game.  Stamp game is Bella's favorite math work.  I am slowly realizing just how smart she is.  She amazes me sometimes.  She definitely got that from her Daddy!

The smiling toddler had to be placed in another room after destroying the map twice!

Sweet baby and his books with Mr. Potatoe Head's glasses!.  He signs "Read Book"!

Lots and Lots of lego building, specially miniature stuff like this little Piano.  Sorry for the blurry picture.

I LOVE toddlers! So sweet.

Maps came out again.  Bella has been very interested in the flags, countries and animals of the world.  Possibly because of the Olympics.

The Beach!

We had a great time visiting my husbands family once again this summer.
My husband lost his Mother this May to cancer. Our trip was good but the the joy of Grandma having her grandkids around was missing. She LOVED going to the beach with the kids.

They would all fall asleep as soon as we got in the car after the beach.

Swim Meets

Bella, the kids friend in the middle and sweet boy!

The kids have had a great summer competing and even winning some first, second and third place ribbons!

We are really enjoying watching the Olympics with the kids this year. They are excited because they understand all the swimming strokes and relays.

These are pictures of their first place races.

He is the one with the cap

Beautiful!

Sweet Bella is the one with the cap

I have to remind people that she is ONLY 6 years old!
