Today "Chimply" the hot air balloon owned by James Bowman of Oklahoma City visited our school. This weekend is BalloonFest in our town. We watched the owners blow up the balloon from the ground. We saw our principal Mrs. Hathcoat go up in the balloon. She did not fly away. We we stood next to the balloon. We felt the hot air from the hot burners. We took a picture of us next to it. It weighed 600-700 pounds. We saw the trailer that it is carried in. The basket was big enough to carry four people. It was AWESOME!! Some of us are planning on going this weekend to see other balloons. Have a nice weekend!!! P.S. We had fun writing this together!Friday, August 17, 2007

It Is Sooooo Hot!
After a mild summer the heat has began to soar! Because of this, Mrs. J is encouraging the children to bring WATER BOTTLES daily to keep them well hydrated. Bottles with pull up spouts or regular bottles of water are fine. The children can use the bottles throughout the week by filling them up at school. Our class will be staying inside on days where the heat index is high. We wanted to give a "shout out" to Beautiful Brianne's grandma who visited us last year & this week. She left to go back to Arizona. She is a nice lady! She plans on visiting our blog. We hope she visits our classroom again soon.
