Hot chocolate, plus a new twist on an old game!

As our northern neighbors wait for a real snowstorm to arrive today, here in K3, we're reading lots of story books about snowy weather. To go along with our cold stories today, we sipped hot chocolate while listening! The children loved it!

And though it has nothing at all to do with cold weather, I have to post these photos from last week's Spanish class. We absolutely love the new HVCS Spanish teacher, Mrs. VanderHart. Before coming to Hickory Valley she taught high school Spanish, so she's had to adapt her style a bit in order to work with our preschoolers. But we have been so impressed by the things she does. Last week, she led the K3's in a fun game of Pato Pato Gonzo ... known to us as Duck Duck Goose. The kids caught on really well!

Here are a couple of cute videos too ... at one point, it seemed like we were playing Cat Cat Goose instead (cat = gato).
