Upcoming Week August 28-September 2




What a fabulous week!  Students are really settling in to first grade.  They are such diligent workers and a precious group of students.  Thank you for sharing them with me.

We ended our short "e" week with a bang.  The students made a "Nest Full of Eggs" today.  It was a hit.  Along with our edible dominoes last week as we were studying addition, the students are beginning to learn that we really like to eat in first grade!

I promised the students that I would send the "Nest of Eggs" recipe.  Here it is: 1 bag of milk chocolate morsels, 1 bag of chow mein noodles, Hawaiian Punch jelly beans;  melt chocolate morsels and add chow mein noodles; use jelly beans for eggs!!  They loved it!

We had a fabulous start to our day on Thursday with chapel lead by Mrs. Shelley.  She challenged each of us to resolve conflict in a Biblical manner.  The praise and worship was uplifting and a great beginning for our day.  I was very proud of the students' respectful behavior during chapel.

Please mark your calendars that Wednesday, August 31 will be individual school pictures.  Also, Monday, September 5 is a school holiday...no school...Happy Labor Day!
