Our classes are participating in the Roots of Empathy program this year. We have monthly visits from our 'Roots babies' which allow us to learn about how babies grow and develop. Each time the baby visits, we record the changes we notice as we observe our little visitor. Our 'Roots Moms' also tell us about the milestones the baby has reached since the last visit.
My homeroom's baby is Baby Jacob and we adore him! He brought some festive cheer to our room with his adorable Santa suit. The next time we see Baby Jacob will be in the new year and we can't wait to see how much he grows between now and then. Here are a couple of pictures from his latest visit.
