Free Choice and A Lil' Math Homework...

Instead of going outside for recess on Tuesdays and Thursdays, our class has free choice.  This is a chance for me to work one-on-one with kids, and for them to get to enjoy the different areas of our classroom.

AM

Silvio and Emma are at the art center. 

Little bit of math homework is on the Please Return side of your child's folder. 

This is a great way to check your child's understanding of concepts we've been working on.

Gingerbread Hunt, Shoulder Buddy Pics, and #1 Class Rule....

We read the book The Gingerbread Boy today, and hunted for that little trickster all over Concord. We found all kinds of important things along the way. We saw the main office, the nurse's office, the library, and many other fun spots around Concord.

Shhhhhh... we had to creep quietly along, so that guy wouldn't hear us.
