Here are even more pictures of some of the things we've been doing! 
Collecting pennies...

Making graphs (lots of birthdays coming up!)...

Finding words with 'en' and 'an'... 
"En" and "an" sound almost exactly the same, but it's not like the English "an". Think "on", but without closing on the "nn" sound. Your child is really the best teacher for these more complex sounds. Everyone will at least know "dent" and "enfant", and from there you can probably get a better sense of the sound!

This morning we also had a special presentation by our nurses on social skills. We coloured in our bears based on our families, our pets and our personal preferences and we noticed that nobody had exactly the same bear as anyone else. Then we talked about ways that we can be even friendlier. Below are a few of our drawings!









Also, ask about your child's sequel to "Citrouiville". Most of us are done, or close to done our stories and they are ever so creative! We will attempt to read them to each other next week!
