The magic word is...


Can you guess what the magic word is? I use my magic word to help transitions run smoothly. It also helps to see if the children are using their listening skills!

Well, Wednesday was quite rainy! We tried to get out for morning recess only to rush back in 3 minutes later when the rain came down! The kids enjoyed their free play time. The kids were hard at "work" building towers, creating ships with Legos, and creating beautiful art work! 
Take a look:











 




Although the thunder and lightning were a bit distracting (for myself included) we were able to get some work done! The rainy day helped inspire our journal prompt. The children wrote and drew pictures about what they enjoy doing on rainy days. Be sure to check the take home folder for your child's work.
 (All corrected work can be kept at home and removed from the folder daily).


The kids are hard at work on their morning journals!



Here is a morning journal writing sample!

Here are the letters and words for the day!



 French class was a lot of fun today!
The children practiced their numbers and colors by playing Tic Tac Toe with Madame!



Our final activity for the day was identifying characters in a story. We read a Rainbow Brite story and I was excited to share that she was one of my favorite characters when I was in first grade!
 See some cute examples below of Starlite, Twink & Rainbow Brite!





Have a great day & STAY DRY!
