We had such a great weekend it was so hard to start back for everyone this morning! We went to Carter Mountain to pick Apples this weekend it was a blast!! It was great timing because today we're learning about "Apples" and the letter "A"!
We added in another aspect to our school day last week and that is our Character Qualities. Last week we learned about "truthfulness" and this week since we had some hyper little girls this morning, we learned about "self-control." We also "practiced self-control" this morning. S- & A- both took turns jumping up and down and then when mommy said STOP, they would immediately STOP! We will be working on Self-control the rest of the week!
We did our letter "A" books today as well and learned A is for A-, Ants, Apple, Axe, etc...
Then mommy had cut out pictures of different fruits and veggies. We labeled two sheets of paper "Fruits" & "Vegetables", and we guessed which is a fruit and which is a veggie and then glued them to the right paper. We talked about how fruit grows on trees, bushes, and vines then mommy asked "did you know people can grow fruit too? Tomorrow I'll tell you about some fruit that can grow in you!" At that point A- got a worried look on her face and started looking up her sleeve, so I knew I needed to go ahead and explain that now!
So...We went to Galations 5:22-23 "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and "self-control."" We talked about how WE can grow these fruits in our spirit and we are starting this week with "Self-Control!"
Can't wait till tomorrow!!
