School News: Apples And Bubbles

Today has been warm and muggy, of all things, we normally aren’t muggy around here. I think we finally got up to 75 for the day.

When I took Isabel to school this morning, she immediately sat down to write her name for the day. She was excited to get back to school because she had been reading a book the other day and didn’t get to finish it. Later, when I went to pick her up after school, she told me that she had climbed to the top of the playground equipment by way of rope and that they also got to have cupcakes! I asked her if it was someones birthday and she said no, it was just our snack. I told her she was lucky because she got to eat dessert before lunch! She thought that was cool. She also told me one of the boys was laughing at her, because she had frosting all over her face. It was funny, she said.

Today, they worked with the letters A and B. For A, the kids pasted foam r-e-d apples to a giant letter A. For B, they made homemade bubble wands with a cup and a straw. Isabel said that she really had fun with it, but didn’t get to make a really big bubble like the other girls. One of the girls was popping everyone else’s bubbles and I told her that was O.K.

The special helper today was Rusty and she’s a girl with brown hair. She brought the cupcakes and juice for snack time. She also brought “Tinker-bell” for show and tell. Tinker-bell is Rusty’s brown teddy bear, who has a green dress and sparkly wings!

“A” is for apple.
“B” is for bubbles.
