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.

2015_02_19 Thursday

From Elise's teacher: Today we talked about Korsakov's Flight of the Bumblebee. We listened to an orchestra play it and then a little boy who played it on the piano. We made bumblebees and danced around while listening to the song. We practiced handwriting for the letter Ss in our journals. We had show and tell and indoor recess. We discussed the Chinese New Year. Yesterday we also made instruments with various objects and rubber bands. 

Show and tell shares: 
Elise- I brought a smurf and a small star and its sparkly


From Jonathan's enrichment program: This week at school your children and I had the pleasure of making a snow plow. We discussed why this tool is so very important to so many people in the world. We touched on who was the inventor of this wonder instrument and why he decided to make invent this. Without this glorious invention a lot of people would be considered helpless in areas where snow is so abundant. The children had a great appreciation for this tool especially due to the weather up north.
