What a downpour, we had on our way to school this morning. I felt like I needed a boat to get to school! The rain didn’t last long though and it was cleared up by early afternoon. The sun was actually out for a few hours before it set. I know in our house we are really excited that spring is almost here, in just 15 days! We are looking forward to getting out of the house, getting our hands dirty, heading to the park, and maybe having a picnic or two. So exciting!
RAWR! RAWR! RAWR! RAWR!
When we arrived at school, the room was decorated with the the science theme this month: DINOSAURS! There were many many many books on the subject and even a prehistoric play area with a volcano! Later when I picked Isabel up there were dozens of dinosaurs out for the class to play with.
Isabel said that Mrs. Boettcher read a book, from the How Do Dinosaurs series, today she read How Do Dinosaurs Go to School? by Jane Yolen. Isabel said she liked hearing the story but would really like to read the book herself and the many others in the series too. We’ll have to look into those at the library…
The Bible story today was the continuing story of Moses and the Israelites traveling to the Promised Land. The story today was from Exodus 17:10-13 and the war with the Amalekites. She told me that Moses got so tired holding his arms up during the war, that he had to get help holding them up from his friends.
Since it was raining so hard outside this morning, the class didn’t get to go outside for recess today. They stayed in the classroom and had “free choice” Monday (which is usually on Friday)! Isabel said her and Reece played together with the wooden blocks. They were just making stuff.
TOMORROW is Chapel and Isabel’s class is going to be running the whole show! I am going to attend (along with Gino I hope) and get some video and photos. I’ve been asking her what they will be doing but she won’t tell me anything! I’ll just have to see tomorrow. However I won’t be able to add anything without my desktop working. I hope to get it fix soon. I feel lost without it…
(Will add photos when I get a chance… after my large paper weight is restored to working order!)
