I love my job!

What an amazing group of students God has blessed us with this year at FBCS!  

PK students are working hard on their "Color Books".  They were visited this week by Mr. Mac the RED Bear, who brought a RED suitcase full of his favorite RED things.  The student's enjoyed RED Kool-Aid (Mr. Mac's favorite drink) and painted red cherries with RED Kool-Aid Scratch & Sniff watercolor paint.



Kool-Aid Paint Recipe 
1 Tbs unsweetened Kool-Aid drink mix
(Mr. Mac the RED Bear's favorite flavor is cherry.)
1 Tbs warm water
Q-tip

Mix water and unsweetened Kool-Aid drink mix together in a small bowl.  Use a Q-tip to dip in the "paint" and use as a brush for your picture.  Allow the finished work to dry overnight.  Scratch and sniff your picture the next day to smell the Kool-aid flavor.

Kindergarten created the last of their "thumb print" people this week.  Can you guess what each thumb print person is doing?

I've got the ball!  You're out!


Watch me!  I can dive!

1st grade through 5th finished their "Clay Pendants" this week.  They turned out beautiful!  









1st through 5th are beginning their "pet portraits".  Don't forget to bring in your photos!

6th - 8th graders continue to paint their  "Visual Journals".  I can't wait for them to add the pages on the inside!
