September 23, 2011

Word of the day: succulent (This word was chosen to go along with our pomegranate tasting/story today. We talked about the story of Demeter ["da mudda"] and her daughter Persephone and how those two relate to pomegranates and to the myth about seasons. It will be interesting to see who remembers any details of the story on Monday ... )

The spelling test results went home today for parental oohing and aahing. (There is no need to return the tests to school. Let the fridge magnet collection begin doing its work at home!)

I've added a link that teaches beginning phonics. Just click on "StarFall Phonics" at the side if you'd like to give it a try!

Enjoy the weekend!
