Through the Looking Glass: Catching Up, Part I
http://throothelookingglass.blogspot.com/2012/12/catching-up-part-i.html
Thursday, December 27, 2012. Catching Up, Part I. This apple is another example of a project I found on Pinterest. The apples were so cute, but the pockets were empty. I didn't want to send them home empty, so I asked my WH to create apple seed number flash cards to put inside. Using the seed from KPM doodles Johnny Appleseed digital clip art. This year we have a nice group of moms who volunteer regularly. They're terrific helpers and I love them all. While cruising through Pinterest one evening in early...

Thursday, January 3, 2013. Catching Up, Part II. In December we do lots of activities to go along with Jan Brett's The Gingerbread Baby. There are so many great gingerbread packets available on TPT. There are many I would love to own, and I have a difficult time restraining myself. My all time favorite packets were created by Fran Kramer. They're jam packed with wonderful activities.

Through the Looking Glass: Worry
http://throothelookingglass.blogspot.com/2012/09/worry.html
Monday, September 3, 2012. So last week we got busy. I made 5 frames to begin with. I gathered together number tiles and counters and placed them in the little lunch boxes I purchased at Target several years ago. I put them aside until center time. When the kiddos got to the table, the first thing we did was review the color and number flash cards. Next, they placed their number tiles in counting order. Even though we only went to 5, it was a difficult task for some of them. Coloring Outside The Lines.

Friday, September 21, 2012. The weeks are flying by and next Wednesday we will celebrate Johnny Appleseed Day. It sure got here quickly this year. The kiddos and I have been having a great time with Go Johnny, Go! We've been reading the big book daily and they're doing a great job of memorizing the text. This coming week they will get their own copy. They've been asking for it all week. If you haven't seen it yet, you'll find it right here. Brown Bear, Brown Bear. They fit beautifully on one shelf. Autum...

Through the Looking Glass: Columbus Day
http://throothelookingglass.blogspot.com/2012/10/columbus-day.html
Sunday, October 7, 2012. The weeks just fly by and I'm having a hard time keeping ahead of things. I was hoping to finish the Columbus products by now, but we're still working on them. I do have a freebie to share with you. It's a BittyBook for Columbus day. You can find it at my TpT store. Just click here. It's simple and repetitive. It affords the kiddos another opportunity to practice reading sight words and learn a few historical facts. Below you will find several single pages for easy viewing.

Thursday, September 22, 2011. The Little Red House. There was once upon a time a little boy named John who was tired of all his toys and tired of all his picture books and tired of all his play. What shall I do? He asked his mother? And his dear mother who always knew beautiful things for little boys to do, said:. You shall go on a journey and find a little red house with no doors and with a star inside.". Then John's eyes grew big with wonder. "Which way shall I go? John asked the farmer. The farmer lau...

Friday, October 28, 2011. A Trip To The Pumpkin Patch. We had a wonderful time at the pumpkin patch a few weeks ago. A local business plants a large field of pumpkins every year. In October, they open it up to the schools as a field trip destination. They provide an excellent learning experience for the children and they are very generous hosts. After getting off the bus, we sat down and listened to a presentation on the pumpkin life cycle. In August, I ordered some cute Halloween stickers from Oriental ...

Sunday, August 26, 2012. Rockin' In My School Shoes. We all love Pete The Cat, that much is certain. My Scholastic book order catalogs were waiting for me when I returned to school a couple of weeks ago. I was happy to see that they are offering Pet The Cat: Rockin' In My School Shoes. In their back-to-school catalog. He personalized them for us by adding our names to the school bus stop sign on the School Shoes. Discs and the license plate on the Four Groovy Buttons. Have an awesome week. Wednesday, Aug...
