January 19,2010

This was a fun week! We are experiencing problems with uploading pictures this week! I sure hope this gets fixed soon. Believe me I am working on figuring this out. In the area of Daily Living Skills we vacuumed our living area and discussed how to use the drapery attachment for cleaning. We worked with the Pledge for cleaning and did a review sheet over identification of cleaning products. We worked on setting the microwave by making chocolate mug coffee cakes. The class loved these and we are getting better at setting time on the microwave. Everyone did an excellent job this week on sorting clothes into piles of light and dark. Our next skill is hanging items correctly on hangers. The class is learning to hang items and then button the second button. Science was a very visual experience using the overhead and various computer sites. We worked on identification of various weather words used with the Commercial Appeal weather map. We will be so ready to see snow if it ever appears on our forecast again.

Friday was a different day in B-8. Mrs. Fields had to attend a meeting at the county office and Mrs. Hill was out due to her husband having surgery. The class went on as usual with a substitute armed with 3 typed pages of notes. The class did lots of fun activities focused on the fact that we have now been in school for 100 days. Students brought in items to count and worksheets to review writing to 100 were also used.

Do not forget that we have an exciting trip to DeSoto Industries planned for this Thursday.
