It is rewarding when a child accomplishes something that makes him/her feel on top of the world. Teddy Post has been so excited by our map unit that he couldn't wait to finish his map today and show it to everyone. We were hoping to hang it up but had to settle for taking a picture of it since Teddy was especially excited to share his map with his mom. On the map he drew a picture of Needham, Puerto Rico, Florida, and Monterey. These were all places that he has visited and obviously has fond memories of. The children have shown a strong interest in learning about maps and making maps of their rooms, houses, etc. If you have any unusual maps that you would like us to take a look at together, please send them in. The more unique the better as we are teaching the children about the many different kinds of maps that exist. We may be working on this for awhile since there are a lot of directions in which we can go based on their interests.
