It's Not Candyland, It's Sunderland!

For the past 2 weeks, we've been learning all about different places in our community -- our school, the post office, the police & fire department, the public library, the Millstone Market and the Frosty.  Yesterday, the afternoon class created their own Sunderland game. (Think Candyland with familiar locations) Here is a photo of a few boys enjoying this game.


We have also been very busy in our classroom post office. The children really enjoy writing letters, putting them in the big blue mailboxes and then sorting them into the individual mailboxes.  We have also created mail carrier hats, mail bags and some mail trucks and mail signs for our block area.
