Pictures are today; that means class time is limited or at least disrupted.Yesterday's afternoon class list went very well. We began with story time, and then a spaghetti lunch with whole wheat noodles, meat sauce, mock garlic bread, oranges and carrots and dip and milk.
We went to recess and then came in promptly for Spanish, New Song and we sang three: Jingle Bells with the verses, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, and Oh, Little Town of Bethlehem. We will try to know at least 25 carols by Christmas break. Then it was Bible Study and the story of the Annunciation, and History with the story of the Christmas Tree.
Today, after lunch, we will tackle the planet placement of the universe in geography and then learn some new songs from recordings. We will read the Little Tin Soldier to the Benedict group while Miss Jana does science with the Scholastica group.
Today we will have hot dogs on buns with melted cheese, potatoes and ketchup, tangerines and applesauce and Milk.
Teaching well behaved children is a pleasure. Yesterday's group was as good as gold. We are so proud of them. One of our very young children happens to be one of our brightest. Yesterday, Nikolai asked if he could join the Benedict group. We always jump when a child is eager to move up. He is perhaps a year younger than the other children, but follows along very well. He just turned four and is at the top of my class.
Miss Kelly told me yesterday that she wants to bring in as many Christmas traditions as possible and share them with the children. Parents are welcome to contribute.
