Friday was a great and busy day. Normally, Friday is a very slow day, but Friday's are picking up because kids know that Friday is Fun Day. In the morning, we had our theatre class. We told the story of Little Red Riding Hood, and then after the teachers had acted out the story, the children got their turns. It was very funny and very cute. We had a couple of props which made it lots of fun.
We had eggs and cheesy potatoes and fruit and vegetables for lunch. It was well received. Then in the afternoon, Mrs. St. Louis told a Bible Story - Daniel and the Lion's Den, and then we drew lions. They were very cute.
At last we had our first weekly spelling bee. I was stunned by how well the children did. Miss Leigh only had to coach a little and the spelling came out like little songs. The winners were Jill Hawkes and Emily Juhl. They got big prizes and a big clapping ovation. When kindergartners can
spell three to five letter words and do it quickly and with consonant blends, you know you have a bulls-eye teacher. We are so proud of our little guys and so proud of Miss Leigh.
The day ended with a new treat the children liked very much - pizzelles. They are a thin, homemade cookie. The flavor was ground orange with orange icing. Next week: Chocolate for the party!
