First Grade: Day 81

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

I had a meeting today after school, so I didn’t get to hear about her school day. She did tell me all about after school care and what they did together, they did marble painting! I didn’t get to see the picture she did, but it sounded like she had a lot of fun doing it.

As we were walking to the car at school, she said that she was tired (it was a long day!) and she only had 10% of her energy. So after coming home eating dinner and doing her homework, she went to bed (an hour earlier) and fell asleep within moments! I’m surprised she lasted that long to eat and do homework! Can you say growing spurt!!

Today’s Chapel was given by Pastor Shawn again this week. Isabel’s mind was so sleepy she couldn’t remember what he talked about.

For library she got one of her missing books (in her own private collection) in the Magic Tree House series; Mummies in the Morning.

Her library book for this week.
Need to get into the computer lab for some AR testing on this one!

An activity she did while waiting for her classmates during her visit to the library.

 Teacher Mrs. B has asked parents and students to collect clean non-soiled items from the recycle bin like cans, cartons, and boxes. The class is collecting the items for a store in the classroom. Isabel took several items today to get the store going.

Front: “igh” is a 3 letter I as in high!

Back: “ey” says ā like in they,
ey” says ē like in key and
ey” says Ī as in eye.

Today the class finished up their science lab about “sound” from yesterday.

Exploring how sound is created by vibration.

The class did the above exercise; a spoonful of sound.

Front: working with proper nouns.

Back: remember to capitalize days of the week!

Front: er-ir-ur makes the /ûr/ sound.

Back: working more with the /ûr/ sound.

Front: working with the spelling words for the week.
I noticed that she didn’t finish this one.

Back: spelling words word sort!
