We praise God for another great week here at school! 

We began our day with morning prayer and praise like always.  Back in the classroom, we had morning meeting.  During morning meeting we read Clifford's First Snow Day. We noticed that the illustrations give us clues to the story.  The words didn't have to tell us how Clifford was safe because the illustrations did!  

After morning meeting, we took a quick trip to the ice machine.  We observed the ice and noticed the cubes are frozen together!  We wondered: how do they stay frozen in large pieces? 

We then went to the gym.  I was unable to take pictures because we used my phone for a dance party! 

After gym and snack, we had a fire drill.  The friends did a fantastic job during the fire drill. 

Free choice time 

During the fire drill, we noticed all of the ice on the ground.  Some of the friends chose to draw pictures of the ice.  We worked to label our pictures.  This was an opportunity to engage in meaningful writing practice! 

We then put butcher paper by the window for anyone who wanted to observe the ice outside and draw a picture of it. 

Some of the friends chose to work on the fence.  They made a sign and a label for the fence as well!  This was, again, another opportunity to engage in meaningful wiring practice. 

The friends used the letter cookie cutters in the play doh to make words.  

"This says cat!" 

During Jesus time we learned that no matter how we feel, Jesus always loves us!  If we feel angry, Jesus loves us.  If we feel sad, Jesus loves us!  If we feel happy, Jesus loves us!  His love for us never ends! Praise God for the love of Jesus Christ that sent Him to the cross to die and rise again to save us from our sins!
