Tom — Thu, 01 Nov 2007 15:09:46 -0400

Wasn't the All Saints Party great? Thank you again to all the volunteers that made it possible! I have set up an account at Kodak to share pictures. I am not sure how well it will work, but we can give it a shot. I have uploaded my pictures from the party and hope that you will choose a few of your favorites and upload them to the site. After a few days, I will send out an email that invites everyone to look at the photos.

Here's how... go to http://www.kodakgallery.com/Signin.jsp?&c=hom_signin_vis and enter stvincentsallsaints@yahoo.com as the email address and boo2you as the password. Choose the "Upload Photos" tab. Then, choose the link that says "add photos to an existing album."

Next, choose the All Saints Party album by clicking on it. Then, follow the directions on how to select photos to upload.

Good luck and thanks for sharing! Ms. Lynne

Neat New Show on PBS

St. Vincents — Fri, 05 Oct 2007 22:00:31 -0400

I wanted to share with you a show I recently discovered on PBS. (I think it's pretty new.) It's called Word World. If you have the DVDs Leap Frog Letter Factory and Word Factory, it is similar to those. In WordWorld, words come alive, words save the day, and words become a child’s best friend. This show is perfect for emerging readers and those learning to recognize letters.

In WordWorld the WordFriends go on comic adventures and face challenges that can only be resolved with the right word. That word is built letter by letter, sound by sound, during the ...

A great time was had by all at the Green Meadows Farm field trip! St. Vincent's children were broken into two groups, and each group went on a guided tour of the farm! The children were able to meet all of the farm animals up close and personal. They were able to pet baby chicks and ducks, walk around in the chicken coop, ride ponys, and even received a lesson in milking a cow! After a hearty lunch, the children loaded up on the train for an exciting tour of the countryside. And what trip to a farm would be ...
