Sep. 21, 2008 - And we are off and running....
It is hard to believe we are going into our third week of co-op already (we skipped a week due to the hurricane-like winds that knocked out the power for a few days)! We have had so much fun, the kids are learning some really cool things in Science and History, fun games in gym and meeting some new friends!
We are now meeting Monday mornings from 9am-noon. We have also divided classes based on grade; K-2 and 3-6. Below is our schedule for this first session.
Each session will be 8 weeks long with one week off between sessions. The only exception will be session 2 due to the Christmas holiday

Reminder: FIELD TRIPS!
We had our first field trip to Englewood Metro Park for a Creek Study. What a GREAT time we all had. We walked in the creek, found some interesting creatures and a few of us got a little wet! (Rocks in the creek can get slippery when stepping on them with wet shoes!! LOL)
The next field trip is scheduled for Friday September 26 at Carriage Hill Farm @ 10am. We will havea lesson in an old fashioned schoolroom and go on a tour of the farm. This is for 1st-4th grade children. Space is limited so if you are interested, please sign up soon!
There is also a field trip on October 14. This will be a Discovery Walk at Englewood Metro Park. Space is limited for this field trip so sign up now!
Here are some pictures from the past 2 weeks and the field trip!
Hope to see you at Co-Op this week!!
