Broadway

Wednesday night we went and saw Jersey Boys on Broadway.  It was a fantastic show with outstanding musical numbers.  It was a wonderful way to spend our evening.  Here are some signs outside the theater.

The Highline Tour

We went on a tour of the High Line on Tuesday.  There were some fantastic views of the city and you can even see the old rail line.  The entire area is very serene and peaceful.  Besides the tall buildings, you don't even feel like you are in the city!  Here are some pictures from the tour.

New York City Day 2

We have arrived in New York and have been busy learning in classes the past two days.  It is great to be back at Columbia again.  I am learning new strategies and exciting new tips for Writer's Workshop. Get those notebooks ready....

I love walking out the door into the streets of Manhattan.  The hustle and bustle of the traffic and the people is breathtaking.  As are the brownstones...

Looking forward to the High Line Tour tonight.  I will take more pictures to share.

5th Grade Celebration

We enjoyed a fantastic day at the camp. We went for a nature hike and tried pine needles. Then we went fishing at the lake and caught 6 fish. After lunch, we went on a photo scavenger hunt followed by some archery. At the range, three of us hit a bull's eye.  We ended the day with some disc golf.  We had a great time at Camp Minikani!

Shaving Mr. Kelly's Head

We raised enough money from the walk-a-thon to shave Mr. Kelly's head. Logan was the top fundraiser and got to shave Mr. Kelly's hair!
