Practicing our Reading Skills








Our Bible Story is appreciating God's wonderful Creation

                   “You have done great and wonderful things.” 2 Samuel 7:23, NIRV
"You have done (point both hands up)
great (left arm jazz hand)
and wonderful (right arm up jazz hand)
things." (clap)
2 Samuel 7:23 (hold hands open like a book)


We talked about the creation of sky and water. This is a demonstration of air pressure 



And, here demonstrating that an egg sinks in plain water, while in salty water it floats

Enjoying our Warm August Mornings




















Our New Green Room --we just think it is fun, but it actually challenges our brain!

Farm Fun

Farm Fun
We had a similar poster:
My Big Red Barn
I wonder what's in the big red barn.
I wonder what's init for me.
It starts with ______
And it rhymes with______
Oh what do you think it could be?
Ch--ick, R--ooster, c--at, h--en,  Ch--icken, m--ouse, etc
these are onsets (the first sound our sounds before the vowels and rimes, the sounds following the onset) it's really spelled "rime!"
Our preppers could read the poem and easily guess the answers.

Popcorn masquerading as cauliflower!




And "lamb" for snacks







Our last day of opening routines...


Some pretty cool handprint horses with miss Amy

 
And handprint chicks

We are always up for using our imagination!





Continuing to practice our reading skills~
"The Chick and the Duckling" is from a retired first grade series. It is a level "d" and would be used at the end of kindergarten or beginning of first grade!
We loved corn in the sensory ben!








Thankfully the rain held off for our Berry Twist adventure.
Then one final playtime with our friends.

The year went so fast! Along with their physical growth, our preppers grew in knowledge, they grew socially and they grew spiritually.
Thanks for all the support for me (pitching in with parties, checklists and just being encouraging).  And thanks for working with your children (having them so prepared for class and reviewing skills with them).
And a final thanks from Amy and I for lavishing us with thoughtful end of year gifts!
May God truly bless you in this adventure of parenthood.
