Colter Visits New York City!

Hello First grade friends and families!  Colter and I just returned to our visit to New York City to be on the Fox and Friends show at Fox Studios.  Did you know that Colter got to go to some famous parts of New York City?  He went to the well known 42nd Street, Time Square, and Central Park.  He even got to see the statue of Liberty!  Colter had a great time, and the people there loved him!


Here are some pictures:

Hot Air Balloon Fun!

Justin, Nicholas, Adrian, and Maxx read about hot air balloons and then wrote reports on them. We took the class down to the gym to read the reports and then launched a real (experimental) hot air balloon!
