our sight words (I, big), and more.

counted to 30 by 1s, 5s, and10s, learned about tally marks, learned about
positional concepts (over, under, on, in front, behind, top, middle, bottom,
etc), and more.
Bible:
We learned about God and His Creation, read the Bible, made Creation Days
books, worked on memorizing Genesis 1:1, sang songs, prayed together every day,
and more.
Science,
Social Studies, Art, and More: We learned about Earth, talked about school
rules, learned classroom and recess routines and procedures, drew
self-portraits, decorated pennants, toured the school, attended art class,

choice time, learned everyone’s name, celebrated the color red, made new
