Sorting

We're going to be working on sorting in math. Big/little, colors, shapes, two legs and four legs, etc. Want more practice at home? Breads/fruits, morning things/nighttime things, mommy/daddy, etc. Everything can be made into a sorting activity.

Back to school night was great fun. I'm working on field trip set-ups. Also, on parent forums. I don't know if the same night as PTO will work/won't work. The logistics of it all. Do parents even still want it? I know it is nice to know that you're not alone. Share what has/hasn't worked for you and your adventure. Would you be interested in having each other's phone numbers or email addresses so that you could talk to each other? I should set up a poll on here.

We started characterland today. I'm not sure that they fully understand it, but we'll get there.

Today in speech, some of our friends earned an amazing amount of stickers for doing the roll that Ms. Lunsford was trying to teach us.

Everyone had a great day. They really did today. I learned of some new quirks that our friends have but nothing terrible.

Again, the game of tag continued. We had some parallel play between Grant and Darius on the climbing mountain. David being the line leader is fantastic because no matter where in the school we are coming back from, he knows where our classroom is.

Alright, I'd update more, and I'm sorry for all the new readers out in Indiana, Illinois, Connecticut, New York, California, Idaho, Utah, and every other place who didn't get to come to back to school night, but I'm beat!

More tomorrow because I go to pick up Mike from the airport.

This is Erica from California. Grant is my nephew, and I just wanted to say thanks for updating the blog every day. I call Melanie, my sister, to ask how my nephews are doing, etc., but it's so great to also hear from his teacher how Grant is doing day to day. It's hard to have him so far away. As relatives of a child with special needs, sometimes you don't feel like there's much you can do, especially when you live across the country. It's good to know that there are so many people helping him learn and grow. I love seeing his name on the blog and hearing how he's doing!

Thanks for all that you do!
