Today is Friday and it’s the first of November!

This month is going to be a busy one. The school has 4 special Chapels lined up for each week. There are parent/teacher conferences, picture day, a book fair and then it’s Thanksgiving break! Already!

Today’s computer lab was focused on working on packets. Isabel tried to describe to me what they were but I still don’t understand what they are.

Not much was said about her day in class and I forgot to ask until later in the evening.

Enjoy the weekend!

Today is Thursday and it’s P.E. class.

For P.E. class they played shark island and big mouth. Big mouth is a game were everyone stands on the gym line at one end and you try to hold your breath while you run to the other side of the gym. If you can’t hold your breath you have to stop right where you are until everyone has stopped. The person that holds there breath the longest is the big mouth. Isabel said she was surprised with how far she got across the gym. She didn’t make it all they way to become the big mouth.

Today is Wednesday and it’s Chapel.

I didn’t get a picture of Isabel in her Chapel dress this morning because we were running late! Then I had to scrap the windows on the car before we left. So no picture.

This week’s Chapel was Family Chapel. Family Chapel is once a month and is lead by the sixth graders. Each class (1st-6th) grade is divided up into a family and then that family meets in a classroom. This year the Family Chapel groups will be going over the school theme for this year and how they can SOAR in Relationships, Responsibility and Relationships (the 3R’s).

“Soar on wings like eagles.” Isaiah 40:30-31

Today was Mr. Liam’s last day of school. Isabel said that his mom brought in cupcakes at the end of class and they all wished him well. When I asked her where he was going, she said she didn’t know. I am thinking he might be moving but would have to ask Teacher Mrs. A for sure. Mr. Liam has been in Isabel’s class since Kindergarten and he will be missed. Such a cute kid, even though he can be rough.

God bless you Mr. Liam wherever the Lord leads you!

Today is Tuesday and it’s music class with Mr. G.

Yesterdays music class was cancelled but Isabel said they had class today. They are still working on their Christmas program songs.

She didn’t say much about school today and I didn’t get to see her until after my meeting at 5 p.m.

Classwork…

She didn’t bring home much work but she did have 3 pages of homework to complete and return for tomorrow.

Today is Monday and it’s the last Monday of the month and it’s also music class with Mr. G.

Where in the world did the moth go? It’s almost turkey time! Crazy!

Speaking of November, there are several special Chapels coming up during the month. There is a Veterans’ Day Chapel on November 6th, a Grandparents Day Chapel on November 13th, and an Honors’ Chapel on November 20th.

Also coming up in November are the first parent/teacher conferences they will be held the week of November 12th-15th. Classes that week will only run until noon.

Today Isabel said that Mrs. Mila wasn’t at school. She was a bit sad but overall she had a good day. She played on the rings and watched the boys play football during recess. I keep telling her to get out there and play with some of the other girls…

There was no music class today because Mr. G was at home with a sick kiddo. Hopefully she gets better soon.

Today is Friday!

What a week! It’s was a busy busy week. With meetings, a birthday, field trip, school, work, homework and errands, I am looking forward to a relaxing weekend.

Isabel didn’t mention anything about her day at school.

School (elementary) had let out at noon and she had gone into the after school program while I was at work. When I finally picked her up at 3:30 p.m., her regular school day was all but forgotten, which happens when she is in the after school program.

Today is Thursday and it’s P.E.

Today’s P.E. class was cancelled due to a potluck luncheon for all preschooler’s and parents. So Isabel’s class got an extra recess thrown in!

Other then getting the extra recess today, Isabel didn’t say a word about school.

I was extra busy after school today so didn’t get a chance to talk with her until later at home and by then I was thinking homework and dinner.
