Patience

Summer can be a challenging time for maintaining patience. With the sun shining outside (well, not this week...) and the exciting buzz in the air we sometimes feel like we have to rush, rush, rush to have fun before school starts again. One of our goals for the summer is to be patient both as general rule and with each other. For example, if someone isn't playing the Wii game the way you want them to, there is no need to get mad, mumble some nasty comment, and snatch the controller from them so you can play their character the way you want to. Instead, try a deep breath and talking through it in a calm voice, maybe even give the other person some pointers, especially if you are an expert Wii player. Share the love!! (now how many kids want to call me a hippie?)

Happy Third Wednesday!

We have had two days of overcast foggy days.  It even rained Tuesday...
Not at all typical for Santa Cruz... oh what fun!

We'll be traveling to the beach today.  The camera is charging and we'll be posting
photographs when we return.

Happy 4th of July!

We will be off Monday July 5th.
Have a great 4th of July weekend and we
will see you Tuesday.

Wednesday- Capitola Beach

Today we visited the Capitola beach. The fog cleared early today, near 10 am. It was a bright and sunny day and kids enjoyed the water and sun. Chris and Blake both got a huge pepperoni slice from Pizza My Heart while Gavin enjoyed an ice cream cone from Cafe Violette. Trey enjoyed hanging out on the rocks while Miguel taught Noel how to skip the rocks on the water. Chris and Jada played DS in the sun. Jacob, Jamison, and Gabe stayed close to the water and explored.

A lovely time was had by all. Even the aides relaxed and chatted in the warm sun.


Pictures will be included in the next post.

Let's Keep a Summer Blog

For our summer class, it would be great if each of you would write something here. You can do this at school, from home, or any other locations you might like. Happy posting!

We will also be using this cool site:
