We are on our way! Week two started well and continues on in
this manner. We are slowly starting to get the hang of our schedule and different
routines throughout the day. Wahoo!
Yesterday we started with computer class and from there we
had Spelling and Religion. In Spelling
class we are reviewing words that begin with M (ask your firstie to make the
sound that M makes (hopefully they rub their bellies when they make the sound,
like we do in class J!)
and words that begin with D. In Religion
we learned about Cain and Abel and we discussed what jealousy is and can do.
During our snack time yesterday, we tuned into a live cam
aquarium on the Discovery Channel’s website….the kiddos loved it!
We also discovered Brain Breaks…which was quite fun to watch
how some of the students reacted at first to the dancing around…but once they decided that it was kinda, sorta, fun,
each student was ALL IN. LOL! Brain Breaks are short videos that have kids
moving; dancing, stretching, singing, counting, bouncing, etc… they are awesome!
They help to get out the wiggles and get us back to focusing.
Today we met our Prayer Partners! The whole school met in
the gym and practiced the song we will be singing in church on Sunday, September
20 (for Education Sunday). And then all
the kids got together with their partners, chose a book, and found a spot to
read. Everyone seemed to enjoy this time
spent together and I am looking forward to our next Prayer Partner
activity.
Don’t forget to have your firstie wear red, white, and blue
on Friday!
Love,
Miss Gallagher
