Time Flies!!

It's Tuesday already! Where did yesterday go? My apologies for not posting a blog, but I just didn't have access to the internet yesterday! I'll update the spelling list today.

Today we continued learning about pets in reading. We had several AMAZING words that we learned yesterday and today: needs, shelter, responsibility, cuddle, and tickle. This week we have been working on short "a" words in reading and spelling. Today we read a fun big book called "A Kid's Best Friend". See if your child can remember who a kid's best friend is! In math we worked on adding two. During social studies we talked about neighborhoods and communities. In science we were SO excited to see that our bean are starting to shed their seed coats! Hopefully we can plant them by the end of the week! During devotion time we talked about our last Fruit of the Spirit~ faithfulness. We acted out the story of Noah and the ark and talked about how Noah was faithful even when people were telling him he was crazy! See how many of the Fruits of the Spirit your child can remember... you may have to help a little bit because some of them are big words! The list is found in Galations 5:22... love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, goodness, faithfulness, and self-control.

I have one other piece of exciting news! We have a new friend in our class! I want to welcome Audrey Brockmeyer to our first grade class at E.A.! We're so excited to have you with us!
