At the Hoedown book

At the Hoedown book

IMG_0829At our school,  the whole school participates in a hoedown every year.  We decided that it might be fun to have our theme for this week be about a hoedown.  Our book talks about what a hoedown is and then goes into what our hoedown was like this year.  Our students were really excited to see pictures of themselves and our verbal students were able to talk a little bit about the hoedown and what they remembered.  Take a look to see the fun we had!

March Madness book

March Madness book

IMG_9951March Madness is in full effect right now, we decided to go ahead and do a theme about it since we haven’t ever really touched on this topic before.  We learned some pretty neat things about March Madness, such as who the winningest team is and also which team has had the most NCAA tournament championship wins.  Since we’ve been trying to get pictures of our students in each of our books, we feature our own basketball team on the front cover of this book and added in a picture of another student on the back cover.  We hope you enjoy!

Women in History book

Women in History book

IMG_9793We are celebrating women in history for Women’s History Month.  This year we are celebrating women who have made an impact and who might not be as well known as other famous women.  We also have 2 of our students featured on the front and back covers of the book dressed up as famous women.  You’ll have to take a look to see who is featured!

Nevada book

Nevada book

IMG_8305We are traveling to Nevada this week!  We tried to tie it into the Unique theme for the month which focuses on the sun and energy.  We found out lots of neat things about Nevada, such as the state name, state animal, and that Nevada is the driest state in the U.S.

We have 2 of our students featured on the front and the back of the book taking in some of the Nevada scenery.  You’ll have to check it out!

Colors book

Colors book

IMG_7794It’s all about COLOR this week!  Our book covers several different colors and talks about objects that are each color.  To make it special, we added some of our students interacting with or wearing the different colors that we talk about.

We found that the whole world is full of color!

Happy New Year! book

Happy New Year! book

IMG_2905Since it’s a new year, we decided to get things started off with a book that we’re pretty proud of.  Some of our students posed as our models for different events that have happened throughout the years, such as the marriage of Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand and the unveiling of the Statue of Liberty.  Since we’ve figured out how to photoshop pictures, we got to place our students in front of backgrounds that coincide with the year of the event they’re in.

It’s a really cute book and one that shouldn’t be missed! (We say that a lot, don’t we? 🙂 )

We’re FROZEN book

We’re FROZEN book

We are **SO PROUD** of the book for this week!  Our student models are back again, this time as different characters from the movie Frozen.  The repetitive line is “who will we meet in Arendelle?”, which is the fictional town where Frozen takes place.  The amazing background that is used in each picture was painted by our art teacher, Judy, her intern Nicole, and her students.

This is a book that you really have to see!

Thank you to Fran, Jennifer, Angela, and Judy for providing some of the costumes that were used.

December book

December book

IMG_0223 (1)This week, we are going over some facts about December!  It goes over the birthstone and the birth flower as well as some important dates like National Chocolate Candy day and Pointsettia day.  Also, the front and back of the book star a couple of our wonderful students involved in some winter activities.

Super cute!!

London book

London book

IMG_9605Since the Unique theme is all about transportation, we decided to “take a trip” to London!  The front of the book features a student in front of one mode of transportation, a plane.  Looking through the book, you can see real pictures from Joy and her sister-in-law from previous trips they have taken to London.

Our students got to “travel” to see Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, and the Tower of London, to name a few.  The The End page even has one of our students dressed like a guard in front of Buckingham Palace!

Fall Festival book

Fall Festival book

IMG_5036We just had the fall festival at our school recently, so we thought it would be fun to do our theme on fall festivals this week.  There are SO many things to do at a fall festival and our book touches on a few of the different activities.

We used real pictures of our students participating in the activities and you can tell that they had a pretty good time 🙂
