First Grade: Day 61 – On The Air

Today is Terrific Tuesday, which means it’s Chapel and library day!

Today’s Chapel was given by Pastor Shawn. Pastor Shawn’s message was about endurance! He asked for student volunteers (Isabel raised her hand – but wasn’t called upon) to show their physical strength and spoke about training for sports. He then spoke about our spiritual strength and our eternal life race. Sounds like it was a great message! Thanks Pastor Shawn! (There will be no Chapel next week due to Christmas Program rehearsals)

Today is also the day that the whole class is “on air” at the local Christian Radio station!

They were nominated to pay tribute to all military personal by saying the “Pledge of Allegiance” on the radio!! After saying the “Pledge of Allegiance“,  they sang a small song that they sing each day after saying the “Pledge”. I waited patiently and recorded the broadcast in the car while it played on the “air”. So awesome and so proud!

(The video below was recorded on Monday but the kids reciting the Pledge didn’t air on the radio until today.)

 

Back in the classroom they worked on a lot of work today, Isabel brought home 5 pages of work and 3 pages of homework! Busy day.
