Welcome to a short week!  We are still busy little kiddos and enjoying this wonderful fall weather!
We are learning about the children of Israel wandering in the desert and how God took care of them through it all.  We also will learn about God giving them the 10 Commandments.

We will finish Letterbook Ii this week.  Next week, we will take the time to review and practice our blending of letter sounds.  In Math, we will learn about number order and missing number, ordinal numbers and continue working on making our numbers correctly.  Our goldfish unit in science is fun for the kiddos!  Squirt has a new larger tank and they are very excited about that!  We will learn more about fall, firefighters and pumpkins in the next couple of weeks.  Last Friday, we were "researchers" in Computer Lab time.  Each of the kiddos was able to click on "Google" and type in "goldfish" (letter by letter!!) and then we looked at pictures of different goldfish!  They did a great job! 

I hope you have a nice long weekend!  I'm looking forward to learning with teachers and pastors from across Nebraska in Lincoln on Thursday and Friday. 

It's Fall!

I saw quite a few sweatshirts and jackets today with this chilly weather!!  I love it!

We have another busy week.  In Jesus Time, we are learning about Joseph forgiving his brothers and then we will learn about baby Moses and the job God had for Moses in helping the Israelites escape Egypt.  We talk a lot about God's having a plan for us every day of our lives and how important it is to pray and ask God to show us what we are to do.

We are learning about Letter I (short sound only) this week.  In math we will learn more about patterns and number sequencing.  Myles will be our Scientist this week.  We will also be learning about self-discipline skills and how we need to remember that there are others around us who we need to respect and show kindness to.  We will have an assembly on fire safety on Wednesday and our goldfish should arrive by Wednesday so we can begin our science unit on animals.

Thank you for attending conferences last week!  It was a pleasure to visit with all of you!
