Week of Jan 10-Jan 13

Tuesday:
What a morning we all had!  I am glad we made it here safe!

We made it outside for recess today to play in the snow!  It was great packing snow!  The children made enormous snowballs outside.

We did an experiment to show that liquid takes it container by pouring the same amount of liquid in different shaped containers.  We also saw how a balloon is blown up and heard the gas coming out and saw when you let go of a object with gas, the gas makes it move.

We had the uppercase B today for handwriting.  Check out today's brilliant all stars.

Wednesday:
We had Chapel led by the 7th graders from Mr. Williams class. He taught us about listening.  We discussed why we listen, when we listen and who we listen to.  Did you know that the world silent is spelled with the same letters at listen!?

The children had 2 specials back to back today!  How lucky!

This afternoon we got a chance to watch the 5-8th graders in the school spelling bee.  The children enjoyed seeing some of their siblings, and chapel leaders.  Congrats to Phoebe who came in 1st for the 2nd year in a row and Nathan for coming in 2nd as a 5th grader!

Thursday:

The children got to being in a stuffed animal today because NO ONE lost a BLURT cube yesterday!

We talked about how Jesus blessed the children.  We talked a little bit about our Baptism and how all are welcome to this free gift.  We read how The Disciples were trying to push the children away but Jesus welcomed them with open arms.  Jesus loves all people, young and old!

Our letter for handwriting was the uppercase P!  Check out these "Pretty" all stars

During science, the children shared some of their solids, liquids and gases that were in their houses. Some were alike and some were different!

We learned about Cause and Effect today in reading.  We wrote a Cause and Effect Chart from our story, Click, Clack, Moo.

During music the children worked in groups to clap a 4 beat rhythm using half-notes, three quarter-notes, and eighth-notes and rests.  

For Weekly Reader the children learned about our new President, Donald Trump.

Friday:

  

In math the children were really challenged.  We we working with 3 digit subtraction when we subtract with zeros.  We did MANY of them together.  

The children had art this afternoon they worked on painting their flowers.

We ended our day with GAMES!  What fun!

Remember: No school on Monday!  Enjoy your day off!
