First Half of First Grade

There's a Veggie Tales song on one of our videos that has a song about the "first part of first grade" or something like that . . . (Michenna note: It's the "first day of first grade" and it's in the Jonah movie.)

Anyway, here are some pics that Michenna's teacher sent out in the monthly newsletter.

Michenna note: This is our apple pictograph. I like green apples. The green apple people won. We got to make applesauce. (Tricia note: That sounds like a great children's book - The Green Apple People)

Michenna note: This was a leaf. It was part of our plant unit. It is a very tall leaf! I am the second tallest person in my class. One boy is taller than me.

Michenna note: One of the moms helped us with the life cycle of a pumpkin.

Michenna note: This is the first Reading Counts charm I won for getting 10 points. The lady on the left in the back is my teacher. The other lady is the principal. I have 96 Reading Counts points now.

Michenna note: This is the day we learned about Native Americans. We made a necklace, wove a dream catcher and wrote a story on pretend animal skin. We used pictures to tell the story.
