Mail

Every so often, not every day, Isabel sends us (Gino and I) “mail” that we find tucked somewhere for us to find. She also mails us “packages/surprises” that we find, usually under our pillows at night. These are small toys that she thinks we need. However, today my mail was in my drawer and Gino’s mail was in the guest room…

This was my “mail”. I think she sent this to me because I was in her room quite a bit on Sunday. She has been playing “mommy” a lot lately. She has lots of “children” which are all her stuffed animals and baby dolls. She will make a car out of her pillow and other items and “drive” her “kids” around to “school” and the “store”. Whenever I step into her room, it’s her “house” and I’m invited to play along! It’s so fun!

Gino’s “mail”. I think she sent him this because his back was hurting… I love it! He’s been working on a project for some friends at church, he’s making their daughter a bed. I will post the photos when the project is complete.

Kindergarten: Day 8

This morning was a bit cool. I think we have seen the end of summer. Even though it doesn’t official end until next week.

This morning makes for a new week and a new letter verse, which is “Bb“.

“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.” Acts 16:31

The class also worked on their Creation books with today’s focus being on the 3rd day; God commands the waters to be in one place and to be called “sea” and the dry land to appear and it be called “land/earth”. God commands the earth to bring forth grass, plants, and fruit bearing trees.

Since September’s math highlight is numbers 1-10. Isabel is enjoying doing these dot-to-dots in the morning.

This was a story about 2 friends; pig and bear. Pig and bear weren’t friends because pig was always making messes. One day pig and bear became friends because bear’s bear got dirty and pig helped clean up bear. In the end pig and bear had a celebration together. Isabel had to remember the story that was told to her and then draw a picture of what happened in the end.

Today’s number is 7. The counting bears were used again today for the exercise above.

Mrs. Boettcher told the class to draw 7 items on the paper. Isabel traced the counting bears and then colored in each of them.
