What"s in your jar?

For art today, I gave the kids a jar shaped piece of paper and asked them to use their imagination to fill them.  Here's what they came up with:






It was a really fun project!  From left to right: Arianna, Emma and Grant.  

We are reading The a Chronicles of Narnia as a family (we're on Prince Caspian) and this week Emma decided to pick it up and start reading it on her own from the start.  I love to see her read!  Arianna is reading Stuart Little (which I read to them a couple of years ago) and really enjoying it, too.  I am so proud of them!

Grant has started to really be interested in writing.  I haven't wanted to push it at all, but he is asking for help writing words.  For example, we started a Gratitude Journal as a family and Grant wanted to join in.  Here's one of the pages:

You can easily spot Grant's entries- the G at the front and the BIG writing!  Emma is such a sweet girl.  Look at all those entries!
