Marvelous Monday

 

Can I say 'Marvelous Monday" and you would believe me?  It really was a marvelous day because we were all back at school.  And this teacher was very excited!!!! As you can see these beautiful faces came right back to school and did not miss a beat.  We jumped right back into our routine and had the most gorgeous sunshine for our trip to the playground today.  We had so much fun running and climbing...

 and doing the monkey bars.!!!!

We included a nature walk to make observations about our surroundings.  How awesome is it that God is giving us a preview of fall with the changing leaves on the tree in front our school? AND we saw a beautiful butterfly in our sensory garden.  AND you can see us looking around on the playground for friendly spiders and dragonflies.  We have already learned that when we go outside, we are going to into creation's home... and that includes bees, ants and it is our job to respect them by leaving them alone.

Even though it was pretty warm outside, you can see in our faces that we had lots of fun exploring our surroundings.

We also had fun reading a book about a gingerbread man that go lost in his school and found a friend that had a gingerbread man sandwich in his lunch box!!!!  (WOW!!!! We could have never predicted that!!!)

 And we just did an overall great job working together doing puzzles and making cards for friends in our classroom.  SEE!!!! It really was a MARVELOUS Monday!!!

 

We are so thankful that Hurricane Florence didn't make the impact that was predicted and kept us all safe.  Our boys and girls pray for the neighbors around us that continue to deal with rain and flooding.
