It's time again for ALPHA-BE THURSDAY sponsored by Jenny at Jenny Matlock..."off on my tangent." For a list of participants and information on how you too can participate head on over to Jenny's blog.
This week we are working on the letter I. What a coincidence! GinnyFaith's class is also working on the letter I this week. For show and tell each member of the class had to bring something that started with the letter I. (Click on each picture to enlarge.)
GinnyFaith got to go first. Since she's IRISH she decided to tell the class about IRELAND and some of their IRISH traditions.
Then it was Ginny Joy's turn. She surprised everyone by bringing ICE CREAM and making ICE CREAM CONES and ICE CREAM SUNDAES for the entire class.
Ginny Sue was up next and she brought her ICE SKATES to share with the class.
Mikey and Joey brought an IGLOO filled with ICE. It was very heavy and took two of them to lift it. Good thing they're strong.
Then Anthony brought a bowl full of reptiles including two baby IGUANAS. He held them in his hands for all to see.
With that Ginny Ellen had seen enough! She held up a sign with one of her favorite "I" words and let Anthony know exactly what she thought!
Thank you Mrs. Matlock!
I so love these little doll vignettes. They are always so cleverly put together.
ReplyDeleteI think Ginny Ellen might have to sit in the corner. Your photographs are great. Your doll friends have such incredible accessories. Thank you for sharing this fun day in class for your "I" post.
ReplyDeleteYou never cease to amaze me with your Ginny vignettes. How many do you have? I would love to visit your Vogue "Ginny" museum! Great "I" post!

Every week when I come here, you take me on a miniature adventure and I can never get over it! I would love to have a tour of all your dolls and dollhouse stuff. I is for INCREDIBLE!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable post. The last frame just made me laugh out loud. Have you considered writing a children's book? Your posts for this meme are just precious! Kathy
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful post. I love all your dolls and stories.
ReplyDeleteYour Ginny stories are wonderful, I don't know why they weren't ever introduced into the UK. Or maybe they were and I just never came across them before seeing your blog.
ReplyDeleteAnyway I think they're cute!
Maggie

I always get such a kick out of your vignettes!! They're always so well done and creative, and that 'boys are icky' sign had me near tears from trying to hold in my laughter so I don't get in trouble over here! haha Thank you so much once again for brightening my day!
ReplyDeleteSo witty - love yr blog!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day & look forward to *seeing* you again sometime soon!
XOXO LOLA:)
I love your little vignettes. They are so charming.
ReplyDeleteI started having a bit of an anxiety flashback with the whole teaching nun thing but, thank heavens, I didn't see any rulers on her desk.
Not that I ever got slapped across the knuckles in Catholic school or anything.
Your post made me smile.
Well, except the part about fearing for my knuckles!
A+
I am a fan, i just adore your doll vignettes!!! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog ... and I hear ya, it's getting harder to visit them all now that so many are playing! it is great fun to see how everyone plays!
ReplyDeleteYour dolls are lovely
ReplyDeleteThis is just too cute. What a great idea. How clever a post for I day. I love the shamrock dress on the first Ginny doll. Where did you ever find the little iguanas?
ReplyDeleteI just love everything about this post. I still have a big smile on my face.

ReplyDeleteThis is sooo cute! Love the little personalities you give them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my *I* also... this is fun (o:
You are as darling as your cute little dolls, how imaginative! I will show this one to my pre-k class, the girls will have a fit! Thanks so much for taking the time to create such a precious post!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute way to tell a story. Thanks for stopping by.
ReplyDeleteOh! GinneyFaith's class has wonderful students!!and the I word lesson is nice!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
thanks for the chuckle at the end, I guess Ginny Ellen isn't ready to like boys...
ReplyDeletethanks for your visit
Good Morning Betty
ReplyDeleteYou make the cutest little diorama/vignettes! Thanks for sharing it was us. I enjoyed all your "I" words for today.
Thanks for stopping by the farmhouse for a visit. We love having company.
Have a great weekend!
Wonderful post, and I love the way you've set up the classroom!
ReplyDeleteHey did I pick a good day to come check on you and your blog? It was fun "playing" with you. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteokay..that boys are icky sign is hilarious! is it vintage too?
ReplyDeleteI've just discovered "Alphabet Thursday". What a great idea. Although I've been blogging for almost a year, I've been a little reluctant to join some of the "goings on" but really enjoy seeing and reading them. I love your doll classroom. My favorite childhood play was with my dollhouse tending to every detail. I shall return--and not just on Thursdays.
ReplyDeleteBest,
Bonnie
I adore the nun doll...her face makes me smile....plus I doubt she is whacking any of the kids on the hand with a ruler!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness!!!! Woww! You did a great post! I love the setting and stories behind each one!
ReplyDeleteI love miniatures! Oh, I'd love to have that whole classroom scene. Hee hee the Nun was classic! I went to a Catholic school when we were stationed with the Air Force in Taiwan. And boy, does my hubby have a doozy of a story of his nun/teachers when he was little! :o)
Blessings & Aloha!
That little ice chest is really cute and I thought that was my favorite picture until I got down to the last one.
ReplyDeleteJust brilliant!
Your little stories are so cute -- always bring a smile! I agree with Steph that Ginny ellen may need to sit in the corner!
ReplyDeleteHi Betty
ReplyDeleteThis is such an adorable vignette! It reminds me of my days in a Catholic grammer school, except that we had to wear a navy blue uniform.
I hope I can come up with a letter J this week!
Still trying to catrch up with everyone since coming back from Colorado ..it's been such a busy week.

Hi Betty!
ReplyDeleteJust stopping by to meet you! I'm Jacqueline from Once Upon a Fairyland which was my childhood home. I think we have quite a bit in common and I would love to follow your blog!

Each scene is so cute. What a great imagination you have to put all this together.
ReplyDeleteSorry I missed this post last week, we left for a weekend outing and I got way behind with my visits.
