Mother Goose

Unless you know another Mother Goose,  you've probably guessed that this week was all about nursery rhymes. We read through lots of rhymes, some the kids have heard, and some were new! On Monday we read "Little Miss Muffet" and had a fun snack to go with it.

Yummiest spiders around!

Tuesday we read different nursery rhymes that have to do with royalty, like "Old King Cole" and "A Sixpence". We then wrote about what we would do if we were King (or Queen). Some creative answers were to "Ride a pony and watch a mermaid" and to "Eat at McDonald's and jump on my bed!" They then got to read what they wrote and drew while wearing a crown. 

Beautiful Queens!

On Thursday we read about Humpty Dumpty and did a fun craft. 

 Fun with the Humpty Dumpty felt board

So many Humpty Dumptys!

In Bible time we began to learn about Joseph. Something else we have been doing in Bible time that I haven't mentioned before is that we have been memorizing verses. So far we are working on two verses. 

All have sinned and come short of the glory of God. -Romans 3:23

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, for thou shalt be saved. Acts 16:31

Our new letter in phonics is "d", and we also reviewed letters we previously learned. The students are doing great with learning their sight words, so thank you for any work done at home!

This week the student's have also been working hard on preparing in the school choir for the upcoming auction. The practice's are going great, and I can't wait to hear it all put together!

Coming Up...

Coming up is picture book week! On Thursday we will have a favorite book day, which I can't wait for!
