Roots of Empathy

We had a little visitor today (and his mom, too, of course!). Baby Elias came to visit us. We were so surprised with all the things he could do. He can crawl now, and pull himself up to a standing position!  He is only 7 months old!

We measured him, too. We were happy that he laid still long enough for us to count how many blocks long he was. When we first met him in September, he was only 8 blocks long.

Babies can look at books, too!! (books appropriate for babies... like cloth books with different textures, for example)

These 2 kids found 3 dots on the dominoes!

Pattern time.....

And after recording what we knew about the number "3", we decided to record what we knew about the number "4", too!

There are 4 dots on a die!

...4 dots on dominoes.... in different combinations!   4+0=4 and 1+3=4

These boys made letters out of the big lego!

Unite for Literacy is a non-profit organization that has set up a free, digital library.  When you go to their website, you will be asked to identify your country as Canada.  This will then take you to their list of books.  Selecting Narration in the top left corner will give you a list of 34 languages to choose from. You can then click on any book and listen to it in your chosen language, including Tagalog!!   

ON Thursday, we shared what we knew about the #2!!!

REMINDERS:  Valentine's party on Friday, Feb. 12th. If your child is bringing in Valentine cards to hand out, please allow your child to do the writing on the cards!
