First Grade: Day 161

Today is Wonderful Wednesday!

Wednesday’s are music class with Mr. G. Today they watched Veggie TalesGideon: Tuba Warrior“. With the DVD featuring “Lance the turtle“, Isabel was singing it into the evening!

Yesterday I mentioned Isabel giving her best friend an award. She worked on it last night and took it to school this morning.

She told me that just after they arrived in Chapel yesterday (before Chapel began) she traded seats with a boy sitting next to Ms. M. With the chaos and noise going on around them, Isabel leans over quietly and whispers to Ms. M, “You get the Best friend award.” Ms. M didn’t say a word but her eyes got as BIG as saucers!

Today Ms. M gets her award! Isabel said she placed it on Ms. M’s desk (secretly) before class began. When Ms. M got to her desk, she smiled really big and quietly placed her award away in her folder. When I asked Isabel if she told Ms. M who it was from, she said “No, she knows it’s from me!”

Classwork…

Teacher Mrs. B is moving forward in the area of math until the end of the year. Isabel brought homework home with FRACTIONS on it! I was very impressed! It’s just scratching the surface but Teacher Mrs. B isn’t going to slack in that area now that they are finished with the required stuff!
So awesome!

Back: contractions with “not“.
Remember to drop the “e“; apostrophe’s are getting better moved into place.
