A Year with CHEC

I am so glad we were active in the CHEC group this year. The girls have made so many wonderful friends and so have I. They have benefitted so much from all of the activities. I can not wait to continue our next school year with this great group of people.

One of the activities that we all enjoyed the most was park day. On the many parks day that we had the kids played for hours while the mommies enjoyed the much needed adult conversing. ;-)



Even Jade got to enjoy a few park days.



Hannah and Lily enjoyed art class this year.  Hannah was able to create line drawings and paint them, make a clay pot that she painted rainbow colors, and make her own candle with a mint scent.  
While Hannah was in with the big girls and boys, Lily and I went into her class to make all kinds of fun crafts including a Rainbow fish aquarium, hand and foot paintings,  and more.  

Here is Hannah's class making their candles. 




Another fun time that we had at the park was the Easter egg hunt.  




We also had a fun and informative time at the Clinton Post Office.

But my favorite field trip was our recent one to the zoo.

Hannah was able to attend the zoo's "Klassroom Keys" classroom experience.

Last but definitely not least is Recognition Night.  All of the kids got a chance to show off their work and perform.  It was very interesting and fun.

During Recognition Night Lily was awarded her Kindergarten completion diploma while Hannah was awarded a reading achievement certificate.  She has tremendously improved in her reading this year and I am so proud of her.  

Here she is reading to her sister, how sweet...

We have one last planned activity with the CHEC group this year.  Our trip to Twin Lakes in Florence.  We can not wait!  I am sure it is going to be fun, fun.
