Snowflake Breakfast




















One of our treasured traditions at Seabury is the Snowflake Breakfast.  The Ladybugs invite the rest of the lower school to join us for a pancake breakfast.  We enjoy the time spent together with lots of adults helping and cooking.  It's a fun event.  We finish up with a holiday singalong, this year the Ladybugs and Bumblebee classes performed the "Reindeer Okie Pokie".

Book reports Seabury style!






This week the Alchemist class shared the ABC books they had written as part of a book report assignment.  The books were amazing!  They shared books about dogs, cats, dinosaurs, space and even presidents. They did a great job.

Bridges and engineering



It started with some sticks and cubes. . . 
today's challenge was building a bridge.
A bridge needs ramps. . . 
and a place to go.

Today's challenge for the Ladybugs and Sphinxes was to use cubes and tongue depressors to build a bridge.  Before we started, we looked at pictures of the Golden Gate Bridge and talked about why we need bridges.  We could have some future engineers in our class!
