Our students have been practicing once a week with their big buddies.  The big buddies have read countless Dr. Seuss books to them and they helped them make really great hats and masks for the performance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They were so excited and such great dancers. What a great way to end the day!!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5346533698032404443-6508252887705773086?l=vestalkinders.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5346533698032404443/posts/default/6508252887705773086'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5346533698032404443/posts/default/6508252887705773086'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vestalkinders.blogspot.com/2010/03/dr-seusss-birthday.html' title='Dr. Seuss&apos;s Birthday'/><author><name>Ms. Rowland</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5346533698032404443.post-6853887921994299772</id><published>2009-02-01T20:28:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-06-29T13:01:35.512-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Our exciting field trip to Click, Clack, Moo is almost here.</title><content type='html'>We will go on our first bus field trip with the other kindergartens to watch Click, Clack, Moo Cows that type!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is so exciting!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To find out more information about the story check out this great link to CLick, CLack, Moo Hyper text.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://pbskids.org/lions/cornerstones/click/story/hypertext/"&gt;http://pbskids.org/lions/cornerstones/click/story/hypertext/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/Farfallina-Marcel-Holly-Keller/dp/0064438724/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;s=books&amp;amp;qid=1233548556&amp;amp;sr=1-1"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5346533698032404443-6853887921994299772?l=vestalkinders.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5346533698032404443/posts/default/6853887921994299772'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5346533698032404443/posts/default/6853887921994299772'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vestalkinders.blogspot.com/2009/02/our-exciting-field-trip-to-click-clack.html' title='Our exciting field trip to Click, Clack, Moo is almost here.'/><author><name>Ms. Rowland</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry></feed>
