Smile, be silly!  Magnatiles, peace signs and water beads!  2 is our number this week.  "Where does it belong?" We sorted furniture into the correct room of the house. Spinner and balls and ramps fun!  FRIDAY: Baby Jace came to LECC fish room today!  We talked about all of the things a baby does: cries, rolls, crawls, drinks, feeds, spits up, etc. We also looked at the baby items and reviewed vocabulary.  We also had the opportunity to work on future tense (will) and past tense (-ed ) using the verbs. The fish friends were very gentle with baby Jace!  Have a wonderful weekend!
