Kindergarten: Day 55

It was only 34° when we headed out the door this morning. It was cold but the sky was clear except a few clouds and the sun was shining! It’s a great day when the sunlight hits your skin!

When we arrived at the classroom no one was at the door to greet us, which was a bit odd. Since Mrs. Boettcher is always standing there waiting to greet everyone coming through. Not today though…I told Isabel to give me a kiss and let her go in without me, thinking that class might have started early, which it hadn’t. I’ll tell you more about that later…

After class, Isabel said they had All-School Opening. With the whole school in attendance, they practiced their Christmas program, which is coming up next week!

They also had an earthquake drill and a fire drill; which they were doing when I arrived back at school to pick her up. She got to see Mrs. W during the drill but only said “hi” since she had to stay in line and keep quite.

The opening activity was a maze through a goldfish. I love the little bit of coloring she did on the fin. She’s starting to blend colors and use more of them when she does color. It’s great!

She brought home this thankfulness book today. She said that they had been working on it for several days last week.

Page 1: Thankful for family.
I love that she included Daisy in the drawing!

I believe this is Taylor from her class.

Page 5: Thankful for food
I like that she made the bowl so big and can only see a bit of food.
Wonder what else is hiding in that bowl??

On the way home, she told me about Mrs. Boettcher. Who will be out of school the rest of the week because her father “went to heaven” Isabel said, over the holiday break. Mrs. Kelso will be filling in for Mrs. Boettcher in her absence. So please keep the family in prayer during this very difficult time.
