I was wishing for a sunny day just as gorgeous as yesterday but awoke to heavy clouds and rain… again.
Isabel was captivated by the new bulletin board for the month of May (will get a photo later in the month). I have to admit it’s very colorful! The class will be going over all the letters in the alphabet and all the numbers up to 20. They will be going over all the colors and shapes they have learned throughout the year as well.
The Bible theme for this month is “truthfulness” and the Bible verse is “I have chosen the way of truth.” Psalm 119:30. The Bible concept for the month is “I can ask Jesus to help me tell the truth.” Very good stuff for the end of the year!
Lots of events are planned for this month as well… next week is a Teddy Bear picnic with all the other pre-school classes attending as well. Isabel said she didn’t know what a teddy bear picnic was and I told her she has to attend to find out! Also this month is Isabel’s last special helper day, it will be on the 27th. I have signed up both Gino and I to be in attendance for the helpers that day in class. Also, there will be a Spring Program as well. It will be on on the night of the 26th. So I will be sure to have my camera charged and ready to go for all these special events!
The Bible story today was about John. When I asked Isabel her if it was about John the Baptist, she said, “No, it was about the other John, Jesus’ friend.” So the story must have been about Jesus gathering is disciples, not really sure. She didn’t give me anymore information and couldn’t quite remember.
In honor of May day and staff appreciation week at school.
Isabel said the Mrs. W had all the children go to the preschool office to give Heidi (office admin) yellow flowers. Isabel said they hid and when Heidi returned she was surprised to see flowers at her desk from all the kids! I told Isabel that was a great surprise for Heidi and it probably made her feel very special to get flowers from the kids. Isabel thought so too.
The special helper today was Ezzra. For show and tell Ezzra brought a cute lamb and everyone got to pet it. For snack, Ezzra brought to share carrot sticks and juice.
My Mother’s day gift from Isabel… but I can’t open until then!
