This morning Grammy and Amy and Noel spent time learning to read and write. It's hard to get them to stop so much fun learning to actually have school. :)
I'm not feeling too well today but am trying to have school anyway. It seems that not feeling too well is a bit of a theme right now.
For our America Moment today we threw bean bags at the map again and talked about the states we hit - just a little. That's a fun one.
My quick note about Introduce Class -
Introduce:
staff - write the word and draw
treble cleff - write the word and draw
lines of the treble cleff
After that, the girls kept out the whiteboards. Amy practiced drawing more states. Then Noel suggested they play school with her as teacher. They were very cute playing. Now they are still playing pretend and also just doing their own things on the whiteboard while I rest. I'll get up again for closing routine.
Amy spent some time listening to a power tale tape and reading along - she's obsessed with those - while Noel and I worked on shapes.
We read a chapter of Sideways Stories from Wayside School.
Noel closed school with her prayer.
Then Amy whined and complained about how boring school was and how she was supposed to be learning and all Grammy and I do is help them play. WHAT on earth was she talking about? I don't really know what she wanted because she was talking to me calmly.
But until then, I thought it was a fun day.
