This week, our Dialectic class completed their three week unit on the Alamo. With their coon skin caps completed, this week they worked together as a class on a cardboard and craft stick Alamo model. It turned out awesome and was a great tribute to the Texans who lost their lives and a great accomplishment for these kids who worked so well together! The Upper Grammar class studied Victorian England. And, these boys celebrated the Victorians by doing some handicrafts. They each created a cross-stitch design, and did a great job! The Lower Grammar class had a Victorian tea party and then made fragrant holiday pomanders out of cloves and oranges. They smell delicious! The Five in a Row kids loved reading the classic story, "Corduroy." Corduroy lives in a department store and is lonely, until he is bought by a young girl and learns the meaning of love and friendship. He also gets a new button for his green overalls! The kids played a button graphing game and made letters of the alphabet out of buttons!
