Blog 411

This blog was created for our friends and family who don't get to see us -- well, Jonathan and Elise, really -- as often as they'd like. I'm trying to keep you all updated on their milestones and their day-to-day activities. I also hope this will serve as sort of a journal for them as well, something for them to read when they are older that chronologues their lives and adventures. When I can, I'll post pictures and maybe even videos to help bridge the distance.

This blog is Part 2 of the Life of the Hardwicks. This edition will focus on our new lives in Atlanta, GA, that began in July 2013.

2014_10_17 Thursday

From Elise's teacher: Today we talked about opposites. We made a flower using felt petals and beans as seeds for the middle-- felt is soft and beans are hard. We went over other opposites. They picked 2 colors and made an AB pattern for the flower. We worked on writing the letter Hh in our journals and we also practiced writing numbers 1-10. Each student also practiced matching season-themed picture cards that rhyme- such as rain, train, rake, cake. We also made a 4 seasons booklet with sight words like, the, I , to , in. They had Italian today. 

We discussed the traits that make something living or non living: Name a living thing or a non living thing and tell me why it is that--
Elise- A nonliving thing is a pen, because it does not eat or drink or grow
