Friday was pajama day, and almost all of the children wore their pajamas to school. It was fun to see what everyone does at home at bed time. Apparently, Jasmin and Miss Judy have the same taste in pjs! Because of the rain, we couldn't go out - which was just as well. We played many many things at school and finished our Shirley Temple movie which Miss Amy said the children liked very much.
We listened to a Bible Story - the Finding of Jesus in the Temple, and had a directed drawing lesson that taught us how to draw a donkey. And these donkeys were adorable. I brought them home to download ;-} Children will take them home on Monday.
It was a fun day even though we had two teachers out with illness. There is a crummy flu going around that really attacks the stomach - must be careful - it's very contagious. Please ask your child every morning for the next week how his stomach is feeling. If you think he's snowing you to stay home from school, offer him a candy bar... ;-}
We are house cleaning at the Garden School, and there is a car toy at the front of the school. If anyone wants this toy, please take it home. I will take it to Mother Theresa's on Wednesday.
We are looking for big handle-less baskets. If you have one you do not want, please bring it in.
Last week we studied North America with its 23 countries. This week we will review South America. Please help your child learn where one country is on the map at least. There is a contest and it is going very slowly. Please remember that it's never too late for parents to learn this stuff right along with their child.
Have a great "rest of the weekend!"
