We read from MotherGoose, The Lion Storyteller Bedtime Book, Little Golden Books, Children’s book of Virtues, and Animals Animals. We also read a chapter from Milly-Molly-Mandy. This chapter covered MMM picking blackberries. We have an extra activity book that goes along with this. It had a recipe in it for ‘blackberry pudding’. I had some frozen blackberries, so we made a batch!
Language Arts
Continued with Developing the Early Learner, and covered ‘families’ and ‘food’ in both the english and spanish versions of "First Thousand Words" (I do not expect the boys to remember spanish words at this time. My intent is to get their ear accustomed to hearing it.)

We looked up different pictures from the "Book of Art"
