Kindergarten: Day 36

We got our car back yesterday morning! It was at the dealership for 2 days but the problem wasn’t all that major. The button that connects the washer fluid to the wipers was broken. A quick fix and it was all good. We even got the work and part covered under warranty! Praise the Lord!

Again, not much was said about Isabel’s day at school. She couldn’t remember she said because she had such a busy day!

I did learn that one of the boys went home sick before Isabel left to go home. Also the Bible story was about the story of the city and their tower or otherwise known as the Tower of Babel from Genesis 11:1-9.

She also told me that Mrs. Boettcher’s dad was back home from the hospital but would have to return next week (I’m thinking for testing). Will keep the family in prayer.

The opening activity was a blank page sitting on the desks.
Isabel drew 2 pumpkins on each side of her paper.

Just Drawing

I got this idea off the internet about drawing and building confidence drawing with a pencil. No colors/crayons, markers, colored pencils, or paint. The picture could be as large as you wanted but had to be on the paper, front or back.

So Isabel and I sat down this afternoon and just drew. At first she didn’t want to draw without colors but after she “saw” the idea, she got on board.

We took turns picking an item to draw. We couldn’t see each others paper until after we were finished drawing. We drew 11 pictures and then looked at our drawings. Enjoy!

1. a cake (Isabel’s turn)
2. a rocket (my turn)
3. a cupcake (Isabel’s turn)
4. a whale (my turn)
5. cookies (Isabel’s turn)
6. a rollerskate (my turn)
7. a pizza (Isabel’s turn)
8. a flower (my turn)
9. a house (Isabel’s turn)
10. a Lego (my turn)
11. a ruler (Isabel’s turn)

Isabel’s cake took up one whole side of her paper. Great job!

The other side of her paper with the 10 other items.

My page with the 11 items I drew.

I loved seeing Isabel’s page after we were finished! Seeing the “coloring” that she did with just the use of her pencil. Great work! I will have to keep doing this at least once a week or so. Building confidence not only in her artwork but mine as well.
