We had an awesome Tailgate Day on Friday with some amazing weather! The children enjoyed themselves so much as we rotated through ten different stations, and had an exciting pep rally with the Auburn University cheerleaders and Aubie! We also had a tailgate lunch!


 


 


 



 




 



 


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


Fall Rotations

What an exciting time we had today at Fall Rotations! The children participated in many fun activities.  In Mrs. Mims room, the children made spider cupcakes.  In Miss Mac's class, they completed a pumpkin investigation. They measured the pumpkin, estimated how many seeds and found out that pumpkins float.  In Mrs. Lockhart's room, they participated in acorn relays and a few other movement activites!  In our classroom, they played pumpking math games.  They painted a small gourd pumpkin in Ms. Caldwell's room.  Finally, they did shared reading and made a pumpkin headband with Mrs. Kelly (Mrs. Jackson's class). 

 


 

 


Beau the Bloodhound

On Friday, the Lifesouth Bloodbank team came to AEEC to do a presentation for your children. They talked to the kids about the different parts of blood and explained to them what each part is for. They explained the importance of donating blood, and they also "made" blood with Kool-aid and gummies. The children really enjoyed the presentation. We also had a special appearance by Beau the Bloodhound. He stopped by to say hi while the children were learning about blood!
