Ms Angie, our director of Children's 

Ministry, came and did a JESUS TIME

story today

God created PEOPLE

Adam then Eve

Ms Angie

used play doh to tell the story

then she talked about how God made

each of us different

No 2 people are exactly alike...

no one has the exact same fingerprint...

we got to make our fingerprint in

the play doh to help us see the 

differences

After Ms Angie left

I talked to the children about another

kind of drill

EARTHQUAKE DRILL

We talked about what an earthquake

is and what we need to do to stay safe...

I told the children that when

an announcement comes over the PA

it will tell us:  it is time for the drill....

That will be it--- NO loud noises!!

The children did an

amazing job of quietly

going under the tables....

we have 16 friends today so we needed to use

4 tables.....

so Mrs Koenen and I helped the children find

all our classroom tables...

duck and cover

even under the table we

practiced covering our heads...

which for a lot of friends we might

need to practice a little more....

the announcement said

if there was a real earthquake we would stay under

table for 30 seconds after last trimmer..

then we line up on our stop signs

and headed outside

we waited on our

designated spot until

administration came around to make sure we 

were"safe" and all

accounted for

SUCH A NICE JOB

water (it was a pumpkin cinnamon vanilla scent)... that 

was fun to have the scent and slightly bubbly water.
