We learned a lot today! The day started with team meeting and our Bible Verse for the week. When we finished, I showed a video clip about what happens when two vowels are together in a word. This video is a catchy song that will help us remember the rule. Please check it out!

This is what we did in our core subjects:
Language Arts- The second grade worked on the long e sound and the difference between questions and statements. The first grade focused the 'd' and 'h' sound. The also worked on the difference between phrases and sentences.
Math- Both classes reviewed for the test!
In the afternoon we made bubble maps of all the jobs a president might do. (Ask your child what a bubble map is.) The students were put into groups and worked together to gather some ideas. When completed we wrote down all that we knew and read If I Were President by Catherine Stier. The book gave us more ideas and we added them to our bubble map. Learning about presidents is getting us all excited for our field trip. Please remember to send in the permission slips along with the money.
Thank you and pray for us as we finish this wonderful week!
