Sequence

Dear Readers,
     For the sake of time, Sister Ruth is typing this entry. Today we started by being a little tired. Some of us went to Friday's Family Bingo. Those who went had fun. Some of us won the raffles and the prizes for bingo.
     We are practicing sequence words in our writing. See if you can identify some sequence words we use in this entry. First, we made scrolls like the early writers of the Bible. We learned that the Bible is important to us because it shows us how much God loves us and how we should love Him and others. Then, we learned other names for numbers. 8 has names like 4 + 4, 16 - 8, 5 + 3, 7 +1, and 1 + 6 + 1. Next, we practiced keys to legibility in our writing. Pp and Bb were the letters we practiced in words like baseball, and pitcher.
      After lunch, we read our stories: "Taking Care of Pepper" and "Lola and Tiva an Unlikely Friendship". Both stories were narrative nonfiction which means someone is telling the story and everything is what happened. We worked with root words and predicates using the stories for text evidence. Finally, we took a nature walk with our prayer partner and found all kind of leaves and nuts and interesting things God made.  Maybe we can include our walk in our personal narratives.What a great day we had!
