(A white board that she likes to pretend she's a teacher with, her bumble-bee doll, her picture scriptures, and her "star blankey" that she has had since she was a baby.)
It was just as exciting for me, as for the kids in her class to see what she would pull out of her bag next. I had no idea what she had packed. I was particularly surprised that she would show her blankey - she even showed them how she had rubbed the corners down to nothing when she was younger.
The boys and I arrived, with treats, just in time to experience her big moment. I wish I had brought my camera, it was so cute.
Isabelle stood up in front of her class smiling her sweet little dimpled smile and told the class all about herself. I particularly liked the part where she told them that her favorite book was the scriptures, and then pulled out a picture scripture book that she had stowed away in her backpack. She said, "my favorite story is about Jesus being born." Then she stood up there for several minutes while she located the pictures of this event, and all of the kids were craning their necks trying to see the beautiful pictures that she held up.
Then the kids got to ask her ten questions. They got right down to the quick of the important things like: What's your favorite lipstick? (sparkly) What's you're address? What's your favorite word? (school) What's your favorite thing to do? (run) What's your favorite song? (gummy bear)
What's your favorite place? (the town we live in)
It was so fun to go see Isabelle in the spotlight feeling special.
That is so cute! She is a sweetheart! Isn't is so great to see their sparkly eyes when they feel special? Glad you got to be there at such a treasured moment!
ReplyDeleteLove that girl! And HOORAY for you blog working again!!!
ReplyDeleteHow cute! I love that she brought her scriptures and took the time to locate and show the pictures of her favorite event. Maybe that's not an uncommon occurence during show and tell in Rexburg, but I still think it's great!
