Visiting Librarian

We started the day with a puzzle.  Zoe has a matching US puzzle and map and is getting really good at using the map for a reference when she gets stuck.  We have so many friends and relatives all over the country, so it's a good way to remember who lives where.

We caught up on some handwriting and journaling.  Zoe illustrated and wrote about her dream last night.  It involved rainbow fairies.

We are moving into addition in math.  I found these great mats that make the process very easy.  They both enjoyed them and we practiced saying the number sentences.  Then, we flipped the mats over and did the subtraction number sentence.

Grana has been visiting us this weekend.  She always tells us stories about her library and all the kids she reads to, so it was a treat to have her in our school for a change!  She read us a funny Thanksgiving story.

Then Grana and Lucy played in the fall bin.  Lucy made Grana find all the "money" and set up a pumpkin store.  She drives a hard bargain.

Zoe and I did another logic problem.  She loves these and is really good at them.

After telling Grana bye, going to dance class, going to get a haircut, playing with Aidan and Olivia, and a quick rest, Zoe relaxed with a Christmas book that Nonnie and Papaw recorded.  These are very special to the girls and are the current favorite books around here.  Thanks Nonnie and Papaw, and thanks Grana for visiting our school!
