 Today in Jesus Time we continued to talk about Abraham and Sarah. We continued to learn that God always keeps his promises.

We enjoyed free choice time. 







During free choice time we discovered a new provocation. This provocation is entitled can you make a baby. Just as we are learning about Abraham and Sarah having baby Isaac, students can explore and create on their own.

Provocations are experiences I set-up in response to children’s interests and ideas. When I set up a provocation, I am providing hands-on exploration for children to practice, test, construct and deconstruct their ideas and theories.

I set up a provocation and listen.  I engage in the children's thinking.  It is my thread to lead us onward.

A provocation will PROVOKE thinking! 

Focus and attention are the keys to developing strong pathways in the brain. Powerful provocations give children opportunities to attend to the world of ideas and concepts with incredible focus and attention.

We enjoyed time in the gym with Mrs. Ericsson's class.
















For small group today we worked on our portfolios, and our car garages.

 We have had a fantastic first day of school. This morning we worked on our fine motor drawers and did our morning meeting and Jesus Time. We also began learning all of our friends' names. We had chapel today as well. We learned how God is the vine and we are the branches. As long as we are connected to Jesus and the word, we will be able to do anything that is put in front of us.

 Today we began with Jesus Time. We continued talking about Jesus calming the storm, and how he helps us when we are in a storm.  We got to have book buddies this morning. We love our buddies. Today during small group we worked on a very special project for our sub Miss Ellery. She has helped out our class so much. We also had our first show and tell today. We had our friend Bayleigh show us her Little Mermaid backpack. We loved learning about her backpack and all of the fun things she had inside. During small group today we read a true story about a baby rhino named Somia. She was taken in by a vet to assure she had the best life possible. We learned all about the special things vets do for non domestic animals. We also enjoyed time in the gym today with Mrs. Ericsson's friends.
