There has been a lot of learning going on this month at the GBA, just not a lot of blogging! Forgive my lapse!

Here is a quick summary of our major events:

February 11 - What can you do with a White T Shirt Day

February 12, Lincoln's log Cabins...Made with an empty milk carton, chocolate frosting, and pretzles. Take a good look at their faces... I think some bugs were eating and creating at the same time, lol. ... can you say sugar rush!

Valentines Day , February 14th of course!

Feb 22 - George Washington's Birthday...

For Washington's birthday I gave the bugs an assignment... Write about what you would do if you were president of the USA, and then paint me a picture of yourself as president... here is what they came up with:

Lauren's Essay: If I were President I would give the jobs money to give the people for payment. If I were President that is what I would do.

Megan's Essay: If I were president I would lower prices and I would give food to the poor and I would like to make toys un - breakable. If I were president that's what I would do.

Douglas' Essay: If I were President of the United States I would give people jobs... the front of his picture says: I am the President at my desk. I am saying, "How are you doing today?". I let the little kid in my desk. The Daddy is looking at the jobs.

TOOOOO CUTE!!!!!
