Here are some pictures from the Fast Forward lab. We started the early levels today and we will continue the same three games next week. This is a great program designed to help your child start reading. We get to go to the lab every day for about 30 minutes.

Mary Had a Little Lamb

Our nursery rhyme this week was Mary Had a Little Lamb. We read books about it, practiced reading the poem, illustrated it and even took turns pretending to be Mary!

De'Marion was such a good sport. He made an excellent Mary -- haha!

Sandy as Mary

Me as Mary

Elliott, Sandy and Matthew show off their Mary illustrations for their Nursery Rhyme books.

Sneezy and Mrs. Stewart Vist

We had two special visitors Monday morning, Sneezy (who is very shy mouse) and Mrs. Stewart (our wonderful school counselor). Sneezy, like all of us, sometimes makes bad choices and he told us about how it makes him feel when he makes a bad choice. Sneezy and Mrs. Stewart discussed how to make good choices and how it makes you feel when you do make a good choice. The kids really loved Sneezy and we hope he comes back to visit again!
