Today is a reading and writing day for both of us, as I have a lot of ARVA documents to read and review today! My student wanted to continue reading a book she started at her old school. It's "Milkweed" by Jerry Spinelli, so we checked that out of the library this morning and she's had her nose buried in it ever since. I love to see her reading and enjoying it as she did not start out her reading journey with much love a few years ago.
Before we could get her book I had her read and copy the daily text and comments, and then write her own thoughts about it. It had to be done very neatly and with no spelling errors, as there is just no excuse for misspelling words you are copying. She did do it very neatly and only a couple of spelling errors so I let that slide.
The scripture for today is Matthew 5:7, "Happy are the merciful, since they will be shown mercy."
Here are her thoughts and personal application (spelling errors included):
Merciful is not getting mad when someone brakes your stuff or something like that. Here's how I can show mercy to my sister ***. When she brakes one of my things I'll just go on and say well I'll just get another one.
LOL this was funny because her sister doesn't break her things, she takes them. They take each other's stuff and use it without asking. Her brother is the one who breaks her things!
