Today is Tuesday, that means Chapel, and I forgot!
Isabel said they had recess today but it was very short . She said she didn’t get to play because she was trying to get people to play with her and by that time it was time to go.
Not much was said about today. She did mention that someone was sent to the principles office for disciplinary action. YIKES!
Letter “Ee” writing practice.
Back: Ella the Elephant visits Dr. Eric for an Eye Exam.
Mr. Elk gets an Eye Exam too.
Phonics work with the letter “Ww“.
Back: phonics work with the letter “Ww“.
“-am” word writing.
Back: “-at” word writing.
Isabel’s reading book that she brought home…. Mr. Faksimily and the TIGER.
Mr. Faksimily heads into the wild jungle with only a handkerchief, an umbrella, and his camera! He ends up getting what he wanted only using his umbrella (and his camera of course!) to get it! Isabel and I were laughing throughout this great book.
New words Isabel learned: ferocious and rampageous.
Isabel got to bring home her penguin paper sack. It was on the bulletin board last month. She hasn’t been able to bring home her snowman yet, they are still hanging in the classroom.

Today is Daisy’s 9th birthday!
To honor the occasion, I made her a whole wheat carrot/peanut butter cake with peanut butter frosting. I found the recipe online and made it earlier in the day so it had time to cool. I think as soon as I started getting the ingredients together, Daisy knew that I was doing something for her. She sat right behind me the whole time! I even let her lick the mixing beaters.
The birthday girl and Isabel, holding the cake that I made for Daisy.
We sang “Happy Birthday” but she wasn’t the least bit interested…
she wanted that cake!
We let her lick some of the “icing” before cutting off a slice for her to eat before her dinner. She loved it! Her little tail was just wiggling.
Happy 9th Birthday, Daisy!
No school due to the Presidents holiday.
100 – 100 – 100 – 100 – 100 – 100 - 100 – 100 – 100 – 100
Today is the 100th day celebration!
I know Isabel (the whole class for that matter) has been so excited to celebrate this milestone of 100 and all it’s things!
100 – 100 – 100 – 100 – 100 – 100 - 100 – 100 – 100 – 100
This morning as we headed into the classroom, Isabel was the first to step through the door and she immediately got excited about what was ahead. The east wall bulletin board was just beginning to be decorated with the bags of 100 items for those who had turned there baggies in earlier. I will have to get a picture of that for sure!
100 – 100 – 100 – 100 – 100 – 100 - 100 – 100 – 100 – 100
The opening activity was a dot-to-dot to 100!
Isabel did such an amazing job, she really took her time counting all the numbers!
100 – 100 – 100 – 100 – 100 – 100 - 100 – 100 – 100 – 100
Isabel’s 100 items were… pom-pom’s!
Mrs. Boettcher (Thank you for the above photo!) had the kids count out the items into groups of 10 and then to 100.
100 – 100 – 100 – 100 – 100 – 100 - 100 – 100 – 100 – 100
After counting out there items they were allowed to walk around the room and see the 100 items that others had brought (if they weren’t up on the board yet).
100 – 100 – 100 – 100 – 100 – 100 - 100 – 100 – 100 – 100
Writing/counting to 100!
Mrs. Boettcher told me that Isabel took her time working on this, she actually didn’t get it finished at school. So we had her do it at home. Beautiful writing!

Today was my new job orientation. It was scheduled for 3 hours but we actually got all the areas covered early.
My official job title is Substitute Teacher.
I am on a 90-days probation. The school needs to get a “feel” of my working abilities and I need to get a “feel” of where I fit at the school. I will be in the classroom with a lead teacher. There is plenty of work already, so I look forward to actually getting into the classroom with the kids. I will be working with 3 and 4 year-old in the pre-school program.
What a wet rainy day! Sometimes the rain came down hard, sometimes the rain was soft, but mostly the rain just came down! The weather looks to be wet for the next several days and on into the weekend. How does your weekend look ahead?
Today was Thursday and the means P.E. Isabel says she doesn’t like Thursdays and P.E. because she gets hot and sweaty. With the rainy day outside, P.E. was held in the gym today. Isabel said they played a game called “quicksand”. The gym floor was “quicksand” and along the way there were hula-hoops spaced out across the floor. Each of the kids and to make their way across the “quicksand” without falling in. Isabel said she fell in the “quicksand” once and had to sit out of the game for awhile. Otherwise she sounded like she had a fun time… and didn’t mention anything about getting hot and sweaty!
Nothing else was mentioned about the day, other then a disciplinary issue in the classroom.
The opening activity was a dot-to-dot counting to 20. Very cute!
I don’t know why Isabel didn’t complete her work again today…
she said she had to go P.E. and didn’t get to finish.
Back: “Dd” practice writing.
Tomorrow the class will be celebrating Wednesday’s 100th day! Some of her classmates have already taken their 100 items to class. I’ve seen macaroni and pennies. I can’t wait to hear about the other items that are brought to class!
In honor of tomorrow’s 100th day celebration, Mrs. Boettcher read the book “Miss Bindergarten Celebrates the 100th Day of Kindergarten” by Joseph Slate. Looks like a great way to prepare the kids for 100th day!
