Queen of the Week

My computer at home broke yesterday so I cannot get to the photos. Looks like there will be no queen this week.

Leprechaun Academy

Students, I would like for you to read Ashley's blog answers. She has not just typed a few adjectives to describe her child, she elaborated on them as well. Please comment via this blog in more detail about your child. If you have not answered at all, please do this assignment. Due Monday morning.

Leprechaun Academy - Jesus' birthday

Colleen will be the blog reporter today. What a fantastic way to end the semester. This group was very organized and they send the children home with the "real" meaning of Christmas. What a creative idea to take the children on a Jesus Journey, complete with kings, gold pieces and baby Jesus. Each students will blog today by writing three words that describe their child. Be creative. I am having trouble getting the pictures to download...I will keep trying.

Leprechaun Academy - snow and lesson planning info

Queen of the Week

Sorry this is so late. We were in Iowa all day. Good luck girls!
Congratulations to Elizabeth. She was the only one who guess who the queen was. She gets an A+ on her chapter 5 test. Way to go Elizabeth.

Leprechaun Academy - penguins

Amy Carlson is our blog reporter today!
Today's teaching group will report how well they performed today. The other groups will either be reporting on their individual child or doing a "running record" observation. Don't forget to complete your food intake diary. Hand in tomorrow morning. I think I heard St. Nicholas will be leaving a treat for class tomorrow!

Leprechaun Academy - dogs

Todays blog reporter is Courtney. We had fun pretending to be dogs and showing off our puppy dog tails. Colleen made puppy chow for all the kids to take home!

Nutrition during Pregnancy

Good nutrition is the single most important requirement during pregnancy. The baby's growth and development, including crucial brain development, depend on nutrients from the mother. Write down all the food you eat on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Include all beverages that you drink. Hand in Friday morning.

Queen of the Week

Guess who she is? I hope we have 100% participation this week.

Thanksgiving Break

I hope each of you have a fantastic Thanksgiving Break filled with good food, good friends and family. The first 3 students who comment on their favorite Thanksgiving family tradition by Thanksgiving will earn 5 points extra credit.


I received 3 comments by 10 AM on Wednesday so extra credit will go to those 3 students. Thanks for being such wonderful young "adults".
