Before our trip to Louisiana for the LSU vs. Auburn game Jack's "school" (we all know it is daycare....I just HATE that term) had open house. It was a whirlwind week so we were non stop but enjoyed taking time to see what he does all day while he's at "school".
This is the transition room (where he moved to this August) and his lead teacher Mrs. Dora. The rest of his teachers have not been consistant other due to the afternoon lead teacher being out while undergoing cancer treatment (Ms. Rebecca is Jack's FAVORITE TEACHER at Watters-she was with him in the Toddler room for part of the day as well....we hope that she fights this and is back at school soon because we all miss her). Jack was being given his "work" that he was going to model to us.
This is part two for the phonenmic envelope A that you will see below on the video. This is the penmanship aspect of the "lesson".
After the phonemic envelope "A" he worked with puzzles....I learned some of the parts of the turtle that night and the horse while he would move the puzzle pieces from the wooden frame of the puzzle to the labeled picture, and back. 
After Open House we were starved and when walking out asked him what he wanted to have for dinner. The lady at the front desk mentioned pizza, Jack agreed, and so the family headed to Watters Creek for Gramaldi's pizza and a little fun out by the creek. We're so proud of the little boy that he has become and can't wait to see what the future holds for him.Watch this SECOND!
In case you can't tell Jack traced the letter sandpaper letter "a" then would take a counter out of the bowl and line it up on the felt workmat. This was to remind him how many times he was to trace the letter before putting it up and working on the penmanship with a pencil and paper. Very interesting. He knew exactly what to do and did a great job with it.
Watch this FIRST. Here is Jack setting up his work. I was wondering what the felt and glass bowl of pretend fruit were....and after watching it all made sense.
