Happy February

Noteworthy details from the past week:
  • 4th graders finished writing a tall tale. Most of the students then "relearned" how to log-in to their accounts on the computers. They then typed their stories and added a picture.
  • 5th graders gave their inventor presentations. They picked out some very cool inventors and some very useful inventions. While all of the reports were good; the one that made us all appreciative: Kate's report on toilet paper. I never thought of the camera, which sits on my desk, until after the presentations were over!
  • On Thursday a group of FVL students lead by Mr. Dave Payne came to Emanuel and gave a presentation to the 3-5 graders on "A day at FVL". It gives the grade school students a peak at high school life.
Notes for the upcoming week:
  • On Wednesday we will have part 1 of our AR reward from 2nd quarter.
    • The movie will be Jumanji.
    • We get part 2, the second movie, because the students let me pick the movies. The second movie day will be sometime in the future. That movie will be From the Mix-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler.
  • It's a short week: Teachers' Convention in GB on Thursday and Friday.
Other info:
  • We sing with the 3rd graders on Saturday, February 18.
    • I know that's the day of 2 different basketball tourneys.
    • As long as everyone shows up, we'll be fine.
God's blessings, today and always.
Psalm 59:16
But I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.
