We went to music and sang:
     B-B-Bumblebee
     Stung a man upon his knee
     Stung a pig upon his snout
     I declare that you are out
And whoever the bee landed on got stung and had to sit down.
We had an assembly with Eric Ode.  He sang funny songs and one was about a skunk.  And the skunk came out and went across the stage.  It surprised us.  It was funny.  It was great!

We got the Vowel Song poem.  We colored it and put it in our binders.  
We had a fire drill at lunch time.  The alarm went off and we had to go outside to the baseball field.  Then we went back in and finished lunch, and we didn’t get very much time for eating.
  We went to the library and got books to take home until next Monday.  Mrs. Yonkers read us a book called Don’t Spit on Your Shoes.

We had Physical Education today.  First we did sit-ups.  Then we jogged around the gym in a big rectangle, and when the music stopped we had to stop where we were.  Then we felt our necks to feel our pulse and it was beating really fast because our hearts were pumping really hard.  
Later we tossed glow-in-the-dark balls to each other, and Mrs. Smith said that if we ever lose power, we could use those balls for light.  
Then we got drinks and came back to class.  We felt tired and hot and happy.

We wrote in our journals.  We each wrote different things, except for the special project people at Table 1.  They made some beautiful pink pages of a book we’re making together called I Like Me.
At reading, we got out our book boxes and read.  Then we sat in a circle and shared what we read.
Later we sat down by the calendar and we did calendar.  We counted the money.  We wrote on the number line and the tally chart to count the days of school.  We sang the song of the days and the song of the months.

“I ran around outside on the gravel when it was recess time,” said Kayla.  So did Donna, Shelby, Rien, Justyn, Jesse, Lukas, Savannah, Ashley, Cameron, Mckayla, and Travis.
“I played on the rings with Katie,” said Abby.  
“Taylor and I played Freeze Tag,” said Taylor.
“I made a nest for the birds with Aubree,” said Jamie.
“I went to the library with Jasen and Jordan, and we listened to a book on tape with some other kids,” said Kaelyn.
At the end of the day, Noah lost his tooth!!!
