As part of Boot camp today, the children played a partner strategy game called Battle Row. The object of the game was to use their multiplication facts to capture 4 combat vehicles in a row on their game boards. I love to see them working together and having fun while learning their facts!
Multiplication boot camp amped up today with the introduction of a partner game called Fitness Facts. After answering multiplication questions, the children and their partner completed fitness challenges. It was a good way to burn off the pent-up energy after Christmas program practice AND practice our multiplication facts! Apparently, the kids don't realize you're not supposed to giggle in boot camp!
Dear Parents:
It's Monday morning and do you see all of the arrows already drawn through my plans!? It's looking to be a crazy, but blessed week as we prepare for our Christmas program. I am hugging my extra-large second cup of coffee this morning, and cherishing the quiet before we forge into the week!
The Christmas program will be this Thursday, December 19 at 2:00pm and at 7:00pm. Your child must wear a white turtleneck and khaki pants. You are invited to attend either performance. The children have worked VERY hard learning all of the words to the songs. You will be so proud!
We're awaiting the birth of our Lord with readings of His birth in Christian Studies (Matthew 1: 18-25) and by making "stained glass" advent wreaths with oil pastels.
It's good to be back! Today, we switched desks and thus, teammates. We had a great time making team posters and learning to work with our new teammates.

During our buddy time today, we made cards with our buddies for Pastor Bertram's wife who is sick with "a very big tummy ache." (In pre-school talk). We are praying for Mrs. Bertram. I KNOW she will love the cards.
