Second Grade: Day 125

Today is Monday and it’s Mission’s week at school.

Isabel’s class will be learning about how the Gospel of Christ is being shared in Egypt. Isabel said there is a new bulletin board in class about Egypt with photos and Teacher Mrs. A has a REAL dress from Egypt too.

Also, today is music class with Mr. G, it’s also the last day for the “Penny Drive” and I am working a full day today. Isabel will be in extended school before school and after school. I’m really going to miss hearing about her school day…

This week’s Bible verse is…

“Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I will be with you always, to the very end of the age.” – Matthew 28:19-20

S.a.T. (show and tell) this week is to share your favorite Bible character and explain why. I completely forgot to talk with Isabel about this Sunday! We usually go over the S.a.T. Sunday night and get it ready for Isabel’s Monday S.a.T. day however we were talking with family on Sunday and it completely slipped my mind! So she didn’t talk about anything and she mentioned that no one did today!

There will be no spelling test or new cursive letter(s) this week. Language arts this week is a review of dictionary skills.

The “Penny Drive” ended today and Isabel said her class had the largest total amount given by $10.00. Tomorrow is the Mission’s Chapel and the school will present Samaritan’s Purse with a check for all the monies received from the “Penny Drive“.

Bella Bear” went back to school today, probably for the last time this year. Not enough weeks in the school year and to many girls in class. Isabel was able to have her twice over extended weekends. The first time was over Thanksgiving break and then this weekend being a 3 day weekend. She enjoyed having her here and would take her with whenever we would leave (reminded me of those days when we HAD to have Lula). At the end of the year we will see who gets to “win” Bella Bear’s journal!
