Catechesis of the Good Shepherd!

Well everyone it has been a very long and full weekend! Whew! On Friday my dear hubbie got into a car accident. He is just fine, but his truck is not. Since he is a contractor, this is an issue that we are still working on! Until then I will be without a car! On Saturday I had my first Catechises of the Good Shepherd training day and it was amazing (my friend drove me)! We learned so much and we were able to learn the presentations that weekend to give to the kids at our church the next day! :) Another highlight was being able to see another atrium! I love to see other people's work spaces, Montessori or otherwise. We had a chance to really look around at all the things that they had in their atrium. So I thought I'd show you the pictures in case you wanted to see how awesome the atrium was! :)
Here is the atrium

Here is the practical life area where the kids can get water for their work and rags to clean up spills

I love the people that they have. These are large peg people with clothes. Their arms are made of Popsicle stick! Perfect! I will be making a bunch of these for my atrium!
