It's been just beautiful outdoors, and we are gearing up for the summer. Kids are already "hot" which is hilarious. We tell them, "It's going to get a lot hotter. "
In class, my 4Ks are writing sentences, and today we will play with the number chart. Miss Kelly and I are talking about handwriting a lot and letter recognition.
At play, we've been doing some Medieval arts with beading cloth. I was hoping the next step would be knitting, but it's a challenge. Children should learn these old arts now, so they will have them later. Perhaps we should do some needle painting or some ribbon painting.
Yesterday, Mrs. St. Louis did some "directed drawing." It's a fine arts drawing lesson. The children drew and then painted sheep. They are the dearest things. We will hang some of them in the entrance way.
Today is geography day. We will be working on our world map again, and focus on directions. We did a map test with Miss Amy's new song, and three of the children could pick out California, Arkansas, Alabama, Alaska, Connecticut, and Colorado correctly. This is not something we've taught. It's something they learned by interest.
Today, Miss Anne is cooking for a private party for 30 in Henderson. Let's wish her well.
Miss Molly is working diligently on the website and bringing it up to date. If you have pictures you think would be great on the site, please email them to her.
Does anyone know that Miss Kelly does Pampered Chef parties? She has supplied the school with the greatest cookware. Some of their things are just fabulous and make cooking so much easier. If you want to see a brochure, please ask her.
Life is really sweet right now...
