It's been a great week so far! The weather has been surprisingly dry with humidity scores of 17; 24; and 26 percents. It's like a desert out there! Everything is dry in the garden and we've noticed a lot fewer birds. The stray cats from the barn next door are wandering in for a drink in our pond.
At school we are preparing for Grandparents' Tea. We've learned some things we want to share at 3:00. Lots of parents have said they didn't know it was Grandparents' Tea. We send a lot of material home to announce these things including the handbook, the calendar and flyers, not to short change the parent board or the blog.
We've been readjusting the afternoon classes and we've added a health class! On Tuesdays, Miss Kelly teaches science to the K-1. I will be teaching health to the 4-K. We had a blast this last week with the new subject. The kids seemed to really enjoy the idea of what makes their body parts all work together.
Our French class has been going great guns. The kids seem to really enjoy the challenge. We've been counting and have climbed up to 60 and will go to 70 today. We are learning all kinds of body parts, days of the week, and small statements like "are you my friend?"
Outside, the kids are learning to climb trees. It's been a lot of fun. If you can't climb into the tree yourself, you will have to practice until you can. And once in the tree, you may only climb as far as you are willing to fall! That keeps them close to the ground.
Report cards will come out October 6.
Today on the lunch menu is baked chicken legs, corn on the cob, buttered noodles and fruit.
