First Grade: Day 147

Today is Thankful Thursday and it’s P.E. with Mrs. S.

During P.E. today the class played “sharks and widows“, “pac-man” and ran in around the gym 4 times. Isabel got a scratch above her elbow while playing “sharks and widows“. I had to put a bandage on it for her to go to bed because it was scrapping the sheets and making it burn a bit.

Please pray for Isabel in the few weeks remaining of school.

There is a girl in class that is older then everyone else, because she was held back to first grade (she should be in second). Well, this girl is mean to Isabel and other girls in class. She is bossy and says things to hurt their feelings. Isabel and I have had conversations about how we can help them all get along but Isabel is struggling with it.

I have seen how this girl acts first hand, when I was on recess duty a few weeks ago. Her social stills are not the best and she tends to act younger then her sister, who is kindergarten. I have told Isabel to walk away and go find something else to do, if she begins to bother Isabel. We still need to show her love but just walk away. So just pray that Isabel will remember these things we’ve talked about and still show her love even when it’s hard and she’s not being a friend (Relationship), showing Respect, or being Responsible enough to act in the way she’s supposed to. (the 3 R‘s)

Smart Award!
Isabel got this smart award sticker today for being 1 of 3 in class to answer a money question.

Teacher Mrs. B asked if anyone knew the answer, “How much money is: 2 quarters + 2 dimes + 2 nickels + 2 pennies?” The class had to figure out the total money count without writing down the answers on paper! Teacher Mrs. B asked several other money questions and only 2 others in class gave the correct answers and they got a smart award sticker too. Way to go!

Doing spelling word homework at the table while Daisy looks outside the window.
Most days it’s spelling words and a page or 2 of math for homework.
