First Homework Assignment

Hadley's daycare has started a Family Involvement Project where they send a special backpack home with the kids, from time to time, that includes a fun activity for the family. 

She was SO proud of the fact that she had homework, but the fact that there was an adorable bear in the backpack, was the icing on the cake.

 We got the backpack on a Wednesday afternoon.  Not gonna lie about the fact that I wanted to toss the bear in the washing machine before he got loved to death by my girlie.  I also knew that he would get to sleep with her, as well.  Had we gotten Mr. Bear on a weekend, he would've been washed immediately, but in the middle of the week, there's just not enough time.  So I had to take a deep breath.

The book, Mooncake, was so so cute.   We, teachers, are a strange breed.  We have this unbearable urge to make sure our children understand and connect everything in a book back to the title.  Now that we have read the book, do you really understand why it is called "Mooncake?"  Can you prove it to me??   

When we finished reading the book, we practiced writing the letter B (for Bear).  I also had homework, as I had to write how the experience was for our family and also what bedtime routines our family has.

Miss Hadley has a long way to go on perfecting her letter writing skills, but we can't wait to guide her along.  We love all these "firsts" with our babies!
