From Elise's school:
We continued to talk about trees, plants, flowers and how they grow. After we put some picture cards in order from seed to bloom, we put our sequencing skills to the test. X presented his 4 part story of a pinata being hung. He ended with an avalanche of candy. X explained putting candles in a cake, cutting, serving and gobbling it up. Then we played a matching game based on our own associations. X matched some objects because they fly, some that are delicious and (his most popular match) things that are stinky. X made a group of objects that go in a house, but she was baffled when I called the TV a television. At lunchtime X taught everyone how to spell his last name. X chose an alphabet book for circle time and got us started by singing the ABCs to the class. She even led us in the days of the week. Elise contributed some great "T" words to our list: tiger, turtle and turfle, which she explained was another word for purple.
Elise had quite an adventure after school. A friend from Jonathan's bus stop came by to pick her up for a playdate. I don't know what those girls did, but Elise was conked out by the time the sitter brought her home. She had a terrific time there.
