Update

Wow, am I a little behind in blogging about Reagan's school work. We now have a couple of daily class activities. We do the weather; talking about what today's weather is, and guessing what tomorrow's weather might be. We also have been doing a daily journal; Reagan has a notebook that she draws pictures in... whatever she chooses to write or draw. :-)

Over the past couple of days we've been doing some school work, but haven't really had anything too planned ahead. One day we learned about the post office, reading Sesame Street Post Office, and then she made pictures to send to her grandparents. She really enjoyed making the pictures, helping put them in the envelopes, and putting the stamps on!

After going to the library, we had some fun new books to read as well, and were finally able to read Goldilocks as we had planned to do a couple days prior. Reagan really likes that story, and there's a recipe for Mama Bear's porridge cookies on the back of the book that she's really excited to make.

Yesterday we read a book about penguins and then another book that asks you to mimic animal behaviors including walking like a penguin. This is one of Reagan's favorite things to do after seeing Chris and Martin do it on Zoboomafoo.

Both kids have een sick, so it's kind of put a damper on things, but we did get out to the store yesterday to get fish for our classroom aquarium. Reagan is really excited about them. We have one tank with Blue and a ivory mystery snail. In the other we have Mickey Mouse, Molly, and a black mystery snail. We also picked up some new schooling materials about which we are very excited. Make sure to check in for new updates!
