The children are adjusting nicely to re-entering school in the new year. This week we have been working hard on simple written composition and continuing with numeral recognition 0-20. We will spend a lot of our time over the next two weeks with assessments since the end of the nine weeks is quickly approaching and report cards will be distributed on January 26, 2009.
My husband bought me a new toy for Christmas - a FLIP camcorder. It is supposed to be real user friendly as far as uploading to the internet. Once I figure out how to do that AND once I get your permission to do so, I hope to video the children working in our classroom periodiacally and will post it on my blog for you to view. I thought many of you might enjoy seeing your child in action at school. You'll get a chance to be the "fly on the wall" so to speak. I will not publish anything to the blog until I get signed permission slips to do so. Look for those to come home in the next week or so.
