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.

First day back to school -- yippeee!!

From Elise's teacher: Hello and welcome back everyone!! Hope everyone had a great holiday season! The students shared their adventures from the last 2 weeks. We had calendar time in the morning where we discussed the new year and new month. This month is about Opposites. We talked about some examples of opposites. Each student said a pair of opposites. Then I and X stood next to each other and the other students said things that were opposite about us such as tall/short, boy/girl. We talked about all the fun things we have to look forward to this month! Our letter of the week is Mm. We discussed words that start with m. We talked about New Years resolutions and I told them that that was another word for goal and that's something we can accomplish. Then we all set a goal for ourselves for the rest of the school year before we go to Kindergarten! We cut and sequenced New Yrs hats and fireworks from biggest to smallest and from smallest to biggest for math. They had Spanish today. We went outside for a little bit. We played with playdoh at the end of the day. 

What is your New Year's resolution or goal for school? 
Elise- My goal is to cut better.
