We made it!

You can imagine the energy level in the classroom with the closeness of Christmas vacation, gift exchanges, three Birthday Walks,  and two straight days of not being able to go outside...!  Whew - we made it - and I'm ready for vacation! :)

This student started with the atlas - looking through pictures for North America.  Then, he retrieved the Continent Folder pictures, and finally got the globe.  After all of this, he proceeded to color a Map of the World! :)
