Each morning during circle time, the Whales review the month, day, and year. They also talk about the “red days”, which are important dates like birthdays and such. Each day, she comes home to tell us what day it is today. For example, she said “Today is Wednesday, September 21st 2016! Tomorrow is the first day of Autumn!”

So, we busted out this wooden/magnetic calendar that we got from Auntie Marie a very long time ago and set it up. Janie LOVES having her very own calendar next to her bed. She knows the days of the week, which ones are weekdays, and which ones are weekends. She also knows that there are four seasons in the year. I guess she really is learning stuff at school…
