Welcome to our world of discovery and learning!

Welcome to our daily blog! We use it to share daily updates on our classroom, reflections on our learning with children, and photographs. Extended family, friends, neighbors, educators, etc, are also encouraged to follow the blog!
One of the wonderful aspects of blogging is that it allows real-time interaction between home and school. Is your child talking about what we are doing in school? Leave us a comment and let us know! Are you interested (or even an expert!) in something we are studying? Leave us a comment and let us know! Are you planning an outing with your child to extend the classroom learning? Leave us a comment and invite other families along!
We also have a section call, "Learn More About..." When we write each post, we tag it with relevant topics. And so if you wanted to see what we have been doing with, for instance, science, you would click on that tag, and see all the posts about science.

Jan Brett Start to Finish!


Today began with a trip to the library! There, Gwen read us a delightful book called "Hedgie's Surprise." It was written and illustrated by Jan Brett. I love Jan Brett for her rich vocabulary and the amazingly intricate illustrations.
Helping us read the story was a puppet who looked just like Hedgie!




Later, Penny's mom and sister came to share their holiday traditions. Each year, Penny's family sends and receives many many holiday cards! Penny's mom brought us several packs of blank holiday cards so that we too could write cards! We will add them to our Writing Center, and they are sure to inspire more letter writing. Then it was time to share a story!  And quelle coincidence! they shared a Jan Brett story called, "Who's Knocking on Christmas Eve?"
