Trees and Toads!

We created our classroom tree today by twisting brown paper and stapling it to the bulletin board.  Be sure to keep an eye on it as the seasons change!  We also have a fire-bellied toad in our room for the next two weeks.  He is so interesting to look at!  This afternoon we started our Handwriting Without Tears curriculum.  We are getting to know all about "big lines".  (See hwtears.com for more info about this program.)
