During Bible time we discussed loving others, and just how much Jesus loves us! We also read a wonderful children's book by The Voice of the Martyrs about the history of Valentine's Day during our Valentine's day party. It really gave a lot of meaning to the holiday!
For writing we worked on writing about those we love in our special love books! The students worked really hard to write the pages and illustrate the pictures!
In phonics we have learned the letter blend "th", with help from our friend Dr. Flemmingway. We also talked about "wh", and learned to read many words starting with these.
In math we have started a new concept with subtraction. The students have picked up really quick on it, and enjoy telling subtraction story problems. We'll go more in depth with this next week.
We did some science this week with a candy heart experiment. What happens when candy hearts are put in different liquids, was our question. We predicted what would happen with candy hearts in water, vinegar, and sprite. We then observed them throughout the day, and discussed the results while drawing pictures!
Of course at the end of the week we had our Valentine's Day party! It was fun to see all the mailboxes and cards! Thank you for all the parents who came, and for all those who helped. It was a lot of fun!
