If you see Howard again soon, tell him I was tickled by how many stamps he put on his envelope… 🙂

I also included fairy tales during the telling of King Maximo – there was always a wise woman, or a storyteller from King Maximo’s court, who would tell a fairy tale a couple of times per week. And, it’s also good to remember that if you don’t get to all of those stories, there will be more opportunities once you get into your second math block! No pressure!
I loved getting the Ugly Duckling and other Hans Christiaan Anderson stories into the first grade. And there is a wonderful collection of Swedish Fairy Tales that includes a fun story called The Seven Wishes.
I love how simple you made your mental math stories! Perfect.
