Happy New Year!

We had a lot of fun this week simply being back together!  Here is a look at the watercolor art that accompanied our January calendars.


As you may have read in the newsletter, Gerald and Piggie (the main characters in Mo Willem's brilliant beginning reader series) were an especially important part of our learning.  As we read more and more of their adventures, the children will be recording their favorite Gerald and Piggie quotes to create a new display in the hallway outside out classroom. These books are incredibly powerful in motivating young readers to tackle new words.
Here is a look at a number bond (also mentioned in the newsletter).
The children are enjoying this new way of representing addition equations.  Number bonds have become a regular component in our daily Number Corner routine.
