Check out what the front of our room looks like now, thanks to the kites everyone finished today in Art!
We had a busy today, but accomplished a lot. It all began with Bible, and the students worked on their 'Story of Creation' posters. They're in pairs for this activity, with the hope that they can work with each other's strengths.
After Bible it was on to Handwriting and Grammar. The 4's worked on their connecting letters in Handwriting today while the 3's learned upper-case S and G, both tricky letters. In Grammar we went on to capital letters, which most of the students found to be quite simple.
After recess the class had Music and then DPA. We went on to Math afterwards, and the 3's finished up any incomplete Math while the 4's completed the unit review prior to their test tomorrow.
This afternoon we finished any incomplete kites in Art, and then the students worked on some chalk drawings of spring.
Our day concluded with chapel, led by Mrs. Campbell. She spoke about how much our words can affect others, in positive and negative ways. On that note, we ended our day with everyone having someone say something nice about them in our classroom. It was an activity that pushed many of the students because they didn't get to choose who they were saying something nice to. A couple needed help from classmates because they couldn't think of anything kind to say about their classmates. We'll keep working on it so that hopefully this comes more easily for them in the future. Kind words build our friends up, and the more we can do that, the better!
