The Garden School Tattler

It's been a while since I've posted a tattler. My computer has been strange, and the hook up really slow.

I hope you guys have noticed the garden plots outdoors near the parking lot. Each child will partner with another to create a little garden for both the spring and the summer. The Master Gardeners of Evansville have discovered us, thanks to Miss Amy, and they are going to watch our garden grow. More as we do it. If you have donations of dirt, garden forks, they would be appreciated. If you could donate some empty clear 2 liter soda containers, it would be most appreciated.

Have you been helping your children with the list of states? It's kind of fun to do. Yesterday we had a little contest, and the kids did really well, but they all need work from Utah on. Miss Amy is quite a musician. It's tough to keep 'em singing at the end of the school year.

Miss Katy Moorman has been volunteering with us as a science teacher. We are really glad to get her. She's an aces teacher and so enthusiastic! Her grandson, Gage, was one of our students. Now Gage goes to school with Jack.

Last Friday we played a game of hunt and find, and we were very very surprised the children did so well. Congrats to Hadley who got 40/40.

We've been trying out new foods again. We had finger peas on Monday along with steak. Kids should eat steak, and they did and they liked it. We are using brown rice, and the kids seem to like that too. Yesterday we had summer sausage and egg pie or quiche. They liked that too.

Today we will eat ham, cheese potatoes and asparagus along with homemade bread, pineapple and oranges.

And the beat goes on...
