Derby!

This week we learned about horses and jockeys and had some fun races of our own. We also have been wrapping up our school year. Saddens my heart that we only have 1 more official day as a class! These kiddos have grown and changed so much since August!

Thursday:

Our sweet class...minus one gal!

Making good luck horse shoes!

tearing paper to make a bee!

If I had a horse...

Learning about real horseshoes!

This one made me smile!

Friday:

Sweet Friends...with their own Derby Hats!

Time to make our Derby horses...the kiddos got to choose their noodle color and color of horse ears. 

The importance of play!

His horse is complete!

So much fun...and so many feathers! Our horses will ready to leave the starting gate soon!

my fun little jockeys!

And they are off...

Sweet gifts for our mamas...and we didn't forget about our daddies either!

Every year I have them paint self portraits...and every year they make me smile!
