School News: Read Across America

Today was mostly about reading and Dr. Seuss’s birthday (see more below), however they still did all the normal things they do each day. Enjoy!

The Bible story today was from John 9: 1-11 and was the story of the blind man being healed by Jesus.

At some point (before the 6th graders arrived) they painted Isabel’s hand and allowed her to decide the color to use, either blue or yellow. She chose blue. After painting her hand blue, they placed her hand on paper to make a hand print flower for the bulletin board (will have to get a photo!).

Today, they played outside, which they haven’t done in awhile because the weather just hasn’t allowed for it. She didn’t get a bike but had fun running and playing with Makayla and Payton.

The special helper today was Mila. For show and tell Mila brought 2 stuffed animals! One was a meerkat that was wearing a yellow crown! The other animal she brought was a white and gray wolf with pointy ears. For snack, Mila brought to share grape flavored applesauce, cheese crackers, and juice.

For the Read Across America project, the 6th graders were invited into class to read and play games with the preschoolers. Each classmate (or 2) was partnered up with a 6th grader. Isabel says she can’t remember the girls name that read with her and Addie but they played Cat in the Hat tic-tac-toe and Isabel won a game and the girl won a game too. Together, they read Horton Hatches the Egg.
