11/4/15

Kadin is still in the hospital, so Mrs. Melony Coleman is substituting for me today,

Here are my notes for her:

8:00-8:15 Mini- Worship

8:15-9:45 – Bible

I usually begin by reviewing the kids memory verse : Romans 12:9-13

If God inspires you to share anything or if there is an aspect about these verses that jumps out at you, please feel free to share with the kids. It is important to help them see the verses as more than just something to memorize, but rather something to learn from.

It is Bible Game day. I allow the kids to volunteer games to play, and then they can let you know how we go about choosing a game. If they choose Bible Hide and go seek tag downstairs, please make sure the ground is safe, have the students clean up prior to playing, and they are into using mats, ask them for our rules about using mats to remind everyone what is safe and what is not.

8:45-10:00 – Math

Times Test 21

Have the students tell you the trick to be able to do this times table

Worksheets are on the desk

Lesson 42

There are two groups

Course 1 – Teach their lesson first on the front board

Intermediate 5 – Teach their lesson second on the side board of the classroom.

If kids have any questions, they can ask each other questions as long as they are whispering and respectful of the other kids working.

10:-10:25 Recess

Kids are liking to play on the big hill out back of the gym. We have been asked not to go back there, so please direct the kids out front near the sign.

10:25-11:05 Science:

I have a worksheet for the kids to work on. They will find the answers on pages 99 and 100 of their Science books.

It is likely that they may not get finished during the allotted class time, but that is OK. We will finish tomorrow..

11:05-11:45 Social Studies

Begin with a colony map work . The map is on the desk. Give them a little bit of time, 5 minutes or so, to fill out the map. Then correct with them. No need to collect this.

If they did not finish yesterday's assignment, please give them time to do that. I'm not sure how clear yesterday's assignment was for them. I will repeat it here, if they are done, then please ignore this and move on to what follows:

Read pages 178, 179, & 180 – Please complete Objective vocabulary Roger Williams, dissenter, William Penn, James Oglethorpe, & debtor

After the vocabulary, please work on #1. It is important for them to understand the compare means what is similar and contrast means what is different. I would encourage them to create a table to do this.

If working on #1 is too difficult for them to complete the work on #1, let them know we can review and go over it tomorrow.

If they are done with that, please have them all get a piece of lined paper and turn to page 182 of their book. Please make sure they write their name on the top of the paper and answer questions 2, 3, 4, & 5 in the section entitled Review.

If they get done early, you can play a geography game with them. They can tell you how they play it.

11:45-12:40 Lunch

Ask students for a volunteer to pray for lunch, then dismiss them when their desks and desk area are clean and clear.

12:40-1:00 Handwriting

Lesson 9 Day 3 & 4

You may read to them out of the book Sir Kendrick, on the table. I am not sure how far along Mr. Davisson got yesterday, but please read to them from where he left off. He began the

1:00-1:15 Spelling

Spelling sentences for the first side are to be done today. Please remind the kids of the parts of speech of each word.

1:15-1:35 Grammar

Grammar worksheets are on the desks. Start with the Pronoun side. Read the instructions with the kids and then do one or two together as a group. After that, have them do their work independently.

When they are done with that side, go to the back side and follow the same procedure.

When they are done with both sides, go over the answers together with them.  This will help them to learn whether they understand the concept or not.  They are free to correct any they get wrong.  As you correct, please give volunteers an opportunity to answer the questions for you.

1:35-2:00 Reading

Joel missed the chapter 13 worksheets for the kids. Please have them work on those, and when they are done, have the students read chapter 14 of Blood on the River. They need to do three reading notes (they will know what that means) for the chapter, and there is a worksheet for Chapter 14 as well.

2:00-2:10 Jobs

Jobs are on the desk with the clothespin.

2:10-2:15 End of Day Prayer

Ask for a student volunteer to have prayer for the end of the day, so that you can go to PE and they can be turned over to Mrs. Woodward at the end of the day.

2:15-2:55 PE

As long as the NIT work crews are working out back, they have asked that we don't go back there with the kids.

There is an area out front around the church sign that we can play in. The kids choose a game of tag to play, they have also enjoyed soccer, but this would not be a good area to play that due to the closeness to the main road.

2:55 – 3:10

Carol agreed to take care of the kids at this time, so you can get to after care. Again, thank you so much for taking this for me so I can be with Kadin.
