FIRST DAY FOR FIRST GRADE

This year we started our 5 day a week classes. We are starting with the First Grade. This class is for 5 year olds. However, we are also open for the children who are older but do not know how to read or write. We are also have some that are only 3 or 4 years old that come with an older brother or sister. Our first day we had 5 students. The next day we had 14 students. We are also open to having the Moms who wish to learn how to read and write, but so far they seem to enjoy putting the kids in school and having some free time. We are finding that they are also using us for day care......... Which is ok, so long as the children don't cry !!!!! We did have one who cried the entire time. That doesn't work. But, we are really happy with this First grade class. We are very organized and the children are learning. We are teaching them in both Spanish and English. The theme for the whole school this year is "God's Love" . This first grade class is learning memory verses. This week the memory verse is "God is love" 1 John 4:8. The children are learning this in Spanish and English. Ruth is my helper, she is very good in English too. So she is a great help to me.
