Friday May 10th

Today May 10th we headed to school the normal time. The kids in the first grade started off the morning doing dictation. For example, I would say a word out loud and the kids would have to write it down in their notebooks. The kids were supposed to use their knowledge of letter chunks and sounds to figure out how a word is constructed. After recess the kids brushed their teeth and did natural science and learned about nutrition. The kids copied down an excerpt about the diets of different animals for example if the animal is an herbivore, carnivore, or and omnivore. The kids finished up the day by cleaning the classroom, saying a prayer and heading to lunch. After school we came home for a quick break and then we walked to Kim's house where we helped her bake cakes for the mothers day celebration at the school tomorrow. After we finished baking the cakes we had grilled chicken for dinner that was so delicious and then we headed home. Tommorow we are getting up to get a ride to the school for the Mothers Day Celebration.
