First Grade: Day 86 – Happy Birthday Mrs. B

Today is Wonderful Wednesday, it’s music class with Mr. G and it’s also Teacher Mrs. B’s Birthday!

Isabel also lost another tooth!! The last tooth she lost was on the 9th of this month! Which makes this tooth her 8th tooth lost, at this rate she’s not going to have any teeth left!

She said this morning that when she woke up her mouth felt funny. She got a tissue and spit her tooth out! You can already see the other tooth coming in it’s place.

Before school Isabel and I stopped at the store to buy Teacher Mrs. B a flower for her special day. Teacher Mrs. B was truly surprised…

Happy Birthday Mrs. B!
Isabel picked out Calla lilies that were two colors, white/pink.

Isabel had wanted to make her a card but we didn’t have time, so I made one last night after she went to bed and she signed it this morning.

This afternoon she’s working hard on her spelling words for the week.
She spells them out four times each while writing out the word.

Isabel calls this her loco face!

Reading this weeks library book aloud. I figured it would be better to do it before the weekend so we could practice Bee words.
It took her 2 days to read it to me and she did a fantastic job.

First Grade: Day 85

Today is Terrific Tuesday, which means it’s Chapel and library day!

I had a meeting today after school again (like last week) so I didn’t get to hear about her school day. She did mention playing with her friend Joy at recess and they were going to play together again tomorrow.

She couldn’t remember the speakers name in Chapel today. All she could remember was that it wasn’t Pastor Shawn!

Since today is the first day of school for the week, we have a new Bible verse to learn by Friday.

“Just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in Him.”
Colossians 2:6

This is a great verse and there are 2 spelling bee words in it as well!

Her library book for this week is a BIG one!
It has many pages and is a large size (not your normal book size) as well.

Front: math work for today.

Back: how many smaller shapes make up the bigger shape?

Front: read the story and decide which picture it takes place in.

Bee Update

We need a break from all this learning…

with just over a week until the Bee. We have gone over 97 easy words + 246 average + 115 difficult = 458 words total for the Bee!

She has AMAZED me in her spelling!! Words I didn’t think she’d be able to spell she spelled!

We need to learn (and remember) 29 difficult and 18 average. The easy words were a piece of cake!!

First Grade: Day 84

Today is Fantastic Friday!

Not much was said about today other then her friend didn’t want to play with her today at recess.

When I dropped Isabel off this morning, we stopped by the “store” to take a picture. They don’t have very many items, so we’ll have to work on getting some more items in the “store.” This morning we took an ice cream carton, a spice bottle and a broth container.

Today was a lot of testing happening in the classroom and outside the classroom.
They had MAP testing in the computer lab and they had spelling and Bible verse testing in the classroom.

She got 100% on her Bible verse test.
All the other tests we’ll find out later how she did.

******      ******

Usually I don’t get a picture of her math work because it’s her homework (back page) and she hands it in the following day.

The front page they complete together in the classroom and the back…

Is homework that she completes at night and returns to school.
Teacher Mrs. B grades it and then returns it back to us on Friday.
We’ll do this homework over the weekend.

“Classco” was open again today!
Teacher Mrs. B says the class enjoys “shopping” and learning to add two digits.

Miss Isabel laying on the bed with me after school telling me about her day.
I love this face!

Snowy Owls

Today my preschool class worked on a super cute art project!

A simple pine cone, batting, googly eyes, a triangle paper beak and a paper bag. That’s all and your done! Great job Mrs. D (lead teacher in my class) for the cute idea!!

They were so cute lined up on the shelf to go home, I couldn’t help but take a picture!
All the mommy’s loved them after class.
