We are wrapping up Unit 4 with a little Rosie's Walk by Pat Hutchins. Little did we know how much our kids would LOVE Rosie the Hen (um...rooster?). Regardless of her official animal classification, the kids loved engaging in SHARED WRITING and MATH GAMES.
Check out some of the instructional learning our kids did this past week!
