Month: December 2012

Today is Isabel’s first day back to school after being gone for a few days.

Over the past weekend we took her to the urgent care because she wouldn’t eat and we were getting worried she might be dehydrated. After about 2 hours in the doctor’s office we got answers to our questions about her not feeling well for the past week. She had a blockage in her bowel. The doctor advised us to use some over-the-counter medicine to help with the problem. It took 5 days to get things working again and she’s back to eating hearty again with no more stomach pains! Praise the Lord!!

The Bible verse for this week..

“Today in the town of David, a Savior has been born to you, He is Christ the Lord.” Luke 2:11

Today was library time too. Isabel choose the “Prince of Egypt” book to read. She gets the book for 2 weeks while she is Christmas vacation. Hopefully she’ll be able to read it to Nana and Pompo while they are here.

Measurements.
The class used linking cubes to measure the length of different objects in the room.

Lesson on National Symbols: Liberty Bell, Washington Monument, Statue of Liberty and the American Flag.
She missed a few capitalization on this one.

Liberty Bell questions.
They did a page on the Pledge of Allegiance too but I didn’t get a picture of that.

No school for Isabel today.

Today is Fantastic Friday! Which means the weekend is ahead and that means… our package is arriving tomorrow!!!! What can it be?? You’ll just have to see…

Isabel was back in class today after being out for 2 days on Wednesday and Thursday. So we’ll see how it goes for today…

This morning Isabel had 7 R’s on her desk! The most anyone has gotten in class ever! She was super excited about it when she got out of school!
