brotherly love, ice cream scoops, caterpillars & ziplines

D drew this picture today of one way he can be "more loving" - it went with his story time today as all during the fantasy genre reading we've been emphasizing the trait of "Brotherly Love." It's him cleaning up K's room...without her knowing. I thought it was very thoughtful - he came up with this all on his own. ;o)


K busily working at coloring her "Do it Carefully" page today - in the big chair in the school area.


D proudly showing off his "Lego Zipline" that he constructed on his own after seeing one similar made on a PBS show last week. :o)

For D's math today, he was instructed to use circular objects to be "ice cream scoops" on top of cones. We had fun talking about opening our own ice cream shop, too! :o) He's getting the 3's facts and I love it's not strict memorization but instead lots of gentle practice daily!

K used a dot pen to make caterpillars today - adults have 10 dots and kids have less than 10! She then sorted them into tens/ones. She's getting it! :o)
