Week 3

Hello everyone,

What a blessing you are to me...all nine of you (and the moms and grandmoms)! I am so happy to be able to spend a part of each Tuesday with you.

I was so impressed with all nine presentations over the last two weeks. Sometimes, it can be a daunting (look it up) task to stand and speak in front of people you do not know, but you all rose to the challenge with ease. I am looking forward to the next two weeks. The presentations should have a History focus with our skill focus being volume and articulation. As you practice your presentations at home, ask your audience if they could hear and understand you that is volume and articulation.

Since we did not get to art this week, practice drawing something upside down. Bring in your drawings because I would love to see them. Also, you may hear the clincking sound of marbles going into the Pitcher!

Thank you for the marbles for our Master Marble Pitcher...it is really filling up fast! It seems that we do not have any master students in our class with food allergies or sensitivities, but we do want to mindful not to "sugar" them up. Mostly, because they are sweet enough!

Thank you to Mary Blake and her family for the delicious cookies and juice, and especially for letting us be a part of your birthday! Also, a special thanks to Anna and her dad for those really cool keychains that they bought us in Africa. How cool is that... that Mr. Lewis thought of us while he was half-way around the world!

Study all three weeks, and I will be introducing Week 4 material next week. If you have any questions or need me for any reason, please be in touch...

Blessings,
Mrs. Black
