It’s Marvelous Monday! Which means All-School Open too.

Today was NOT a good day for Isabel. I won’t go into detail but her behavior was so unlike her that Teacher Mrs. B and us were shocked by it. Hopefully her punishment will help her to remember to think before doing it again, so there won’t be a next time.

Therefore we did not get any information about the rest of her day and how it went. Hopefully tomorrow is a lot better for all of us.

This week’s Bible verse is:

Today is Thankful Thursday and it’s P.E. with Mrs. S and computer lab with Mrs. T.

Today for P.E. they played pac-man and 4 corners. Isabel said they got to rowdy so Mrs. S stopped all the crazy fun and had them listen to a story. Hopefully that got the crazy fun calmed down!

In computer lab they took a test on their classroom story for the week., “Around the World“.

The class finished up part 2 of this weeks science lesson called “Newton’s Third” and it’s about Newton’s third law of motion!

Front: the class worked together on this activity.

She wants to do this at home and I told her, we could give it try since we have all the materials that we need. She was excited!

Back: “For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.”
Which is action and reaction?

During computer lab with Mrs. T. Isabel said she took 3 AR tests today. She mentioned they went to music class but didn’t mention what they did.

Today was also part 1 of this weeks science lesson called “Newton’s Third” and it’s about Newton’s third law of motion!

Today they talked about birds flying, fish swimming, and cars moving. When objects push or pull, another object reacts with equal force in the opposite direction!

Today is Terrific Tuesday with Chapel and library.
(we almost forgot her library book this morning as we headed out the door – being off yesterday throw us off a bit!)

Today is the first day back after a long 3 day weekend! We stayed close to home and worked on her Bible verse for this week. She’s struggling a bit with Deuteronomy but I’ll think she’ll get it by Friday.

This week’s Bible verse is…

“It is the Lord your God you must follow, and Him you must revere.” Deuteronomy 13:4a

We’ll continue to work on it during the week after school along with her other homework.

Today’s Chapel was lead by Pastor Shawn!! He always gives such great messages and the kids just love hearing from him too!

I asked Isabel if she could have one animal on this page which one would she choose. She said, “A hamster.”  She also said she wouldn’t want a pig because they smell. I told her that you could have a pig in your house and it’s actually quite clean. It’s called a pot-belly pig. I wouldn’t want one but they are cleaner then your average pig.

Front: working with words that have /ar/ sound.

Back: /ar/ sound.

Today is Fantastic Friday and it’s music class with Mr. G and it’s also “Spirit Friday“.
Today’s “Spirit Friday” theme is ♥♥♥hearts♥♥♥!

Isabel couldn’t remember what they did in music class this morning. However Mr. G did come to MY class today and he taught us the “wiggle” song that she was singing the other day. My class loved the song though! I’ll have to find out the words to this great action song!

Isabel’s ♥♥heart♥♥ theme attire!
We did a “heart” in her hair too but it didn’t last the whole day like yesterday.

For today’s Bible verse test, she got 100%! Way to go!!

Today is Thankful Thursday and it’s P.E. with Mrs. S and computer lab with Mrs. T. Computer lab was cancelled because of the class Valentine’s party this afternoon.

During P.E. Isabel said they played basketball. She is trying to learn how to make a basket but keeps missing with practice though she’ll get it. While She was practicing today she sprained her pinky finger. It’s NOT BROKEN! Just very sore and black and blue. We are keeping an eye on it.

The Valentine’s party was on everyone’s mind all day! They decorated cookies and had juice boxes. They handed out their own Valentines cards and played a game or two as well. Isabel had a lot of fun and was wearing most of her cookie on her face when I picked her up!

In class eating her treats.

Nancy, Anabella, Audrey, Mila, Madeline, Fiona, Eden, Isabel, Isabella, and Maddie.
All the girls (missing 2) wanted a picture. (one of the boys slipped in and a sibling too!)

She ended up with not a whole lot of candy (which I am so thankful for). She got lots of suckers and a bag of microwave gourmet popcorn! Other items she got were pencils, small notepads, and bubbles. Fun stuff!!

At school on the playground with friends; Madeline and Mila.
