This morning we were doing well on time but when we actually got out the door, we some how lost several minutes and arrived at school later then normal. Thankfully, we weren’t to late and Isabel was able to get her name written in time. It looks to be a good day patchy clouds with the sun shining through. Enjoy!

How she doing?

The Bible story today was from Matthew 14:13-14 and was the story of Jesus healing the multitudes.

Continuing with the theme of birds this week, the class painted pictures with the shaft of a feather. Isabel’s picture is of a rainbow with the sky above (the purple above the rainbow is her attempt at making the color purple; since there was no purple paint!). She also wrote her name with the feather as well. The “L” got smeared because she got her sleeve to close to the paint!

The special helper was Presley. For show and tell Presley brought a Zhu Zhu pet. There were actually 2 of them (one big one small) Isabel said, one of them walked and made squeaky noises. For snack Presley brought to share orange halves and juice.

The day moved quickly and before I knew it, I was back at the classroom picking her up!

Today was Chapel and they heard the story of Elijah. The Bible story in class was about Jonah. In keeping with the bird theme for the week, Mrs. W read the book “Little Chick’s Breakfast” by Mary DeBall Kwitz. Isabel said it was a fun book.

The letter Y is for: yarn and yo-yo.

Ladybugs in the classroom!

The special helper was Isabella. For show and tell she brought a bunny. For snack she brought to share cupcakes and juice.

This week the class is talking about birds. So when she got home from school and I asked her if they talked about birds she said, “I think so, because we made a duck.”

The homework bulletin board for April with the flower (homework) that I shared earlier in the month. BTW… Isabel’s flower is just below the word “here”.

The academics board for the month of April.
I normal don’t get a photo of this one but the color this month is purple and Isabel’s been excited about that!

After class and everyone had left Nevan, his mom, and Isabel were visiting the Science table together.

Making ducks… Isabel cut out the “wings”. On the way to the car from the classroom it got really wet, so just after this picture was taken the “wings” fell off. I re-glued them and hope that it sticks.

Isabel’s bean plant from last month. They were finally able to bring them home. I think if we get into a bigger pot that it will do very well. The plant itself isn’t large but it has tons of roots!

They played in the gym today since the rain was coming down hard all morning long. They played duck-duck-goose and sailors and sharks. Isabel said she didn’t get tagged to be a sailor but she was fine with that she liked being a shark.

The special helper today was Dany. For show and tell Dany brought 3 books, 1 of them was in Spanish and an sheep that looked like Isabel’s Lula. For snack Dany brought to share “Cuties” and graham cracker bunnies and a drink.

No school due to Good Friday.

No school due to parent/teacher conferences.

When we arrived to class this morning, Mrs. W, handed me a photo packet from the class photos that were taken last month. I had almost forgotten about them and was eager to get home and see what they looked like.

After class we went out to lunch with Daddy downtown. So by the time we got home, Isabel couldn’t quite remember all that happened in school today…

They talked about Easter and the importance of the Resurrection of Jesus.

Isabel told me that she didn’t cut out the white (outer) egg part but only the purple part. I told her that she did a very good job.

The class again played in both the playground and the courtyard. Isabel says she likes playing in the courtyard better then the playground because it’s a lot easier to get away from the boys!

During free-play Isabel says she had a big surprise because the giant plastic egg (that they used in the kitchen) was filled with smaller colored Easter eggs. She showed me the egg at the end of class and it was filled up! She also mentioned that the lizard costume was back for them to play with and Zackary played with it today because Isabel says, “He likes to be a lizard!”

Continuing their discussion of new life and spring, they made tissue paper flowers.

I had Isabel model her’s. So cute!

The special helper today was Olivia. For show and tell Olivia brought a purple unicorn pillow pet. For snack Olivia brought to share fruit snacks and juice.

A drizzle of a morning was with us as we headed to school today and our morning wasn’t a very pleasant one and after class we had a long talk about the way we were acting before class began. Hopefully we wouldn’t have the same problem(s) again…

With Easter approaching fast and no school next week before Easter. This week, the class is going over the Easter story. Today they made Empty Tomb Crescent Rolls (such an awesome idea! I’ve got to try it!). To hear Isabel explain the recipe process was confusing and interesting to say the least. However, I didn’t want to wait until Friday to ask Mrs. W and easily found a recipe online (love the internet!).

The Bible story today was of the Matthew 27: 27-66, with focus on the resurrection of Jesus.

The special helper today was Lilliana. For show and tell Lilliana brought a Dora book. For snack Lilliana brought to share Scooby-Do® fruit snacks and juice.
