Here is what we have been up to this week:
Religion- We traveled over to the ECC this week to
share a chapel message with them about God’s Love. We taught them John 3:16. :) In
class, we discussed Jesus’ birth and how the prophets shared that message
thousands of years before.
Memory for next week:
February 13-and I pray You to forgive me all my sins where I
have done wrong, and graciously keep me this night. For into Your hands I commend myself, my body
and soul, and all things. Let Your holy angel be with me, that the wicked foe
may have no power over me. Amen.
February 16- Say the entire Evening Prayer.
Language Arts-We finished up reading “Sadako and the
Thousand Paper Cranes.” What a sad
ending to this story—but it was beautiful and it led us to some great
conversations about the war, about cancer, and about our faith. Next week, we will work in our basals again
and read the story, “Jose! Born to Dance.”
We also finished up our DEAR Time selection, “Tuck Everlasting.” Wow!
This story kept us on the edge of our seats… We will be going to see
this play at the Coterie Theatre on March 23rd. mark your calendars! Thanks!
Spelling Words for next Friday, February 16th:
learn, dirty, worn, sore, thirst, burn, record, cure, board,
course, worth, early, return, pure, world, search, worse, thirteen, sport,
current, curious, thorough, *hypothesize
Math- We finished up our unit on patterns and order
of operations and tested this week. We
also began Unit 8 about fractions. Bring
it on! We had two kiddos pass their
Winstead’s Multiplication Test too—Congrats to Siarya and Karli! Whoopee!
Science-We finished up our unit on the Animal and Plant
Kingdoms and we will have a test on Monday, February 12th. We will play Science Jeopardy today to
prepare! Your child should be working on his or her
Science Project at home. Mrs. Stack
visited on Wednesday to make sure all of the kids were on track. :)
When your child needs the display board, I have them here at
school. They just need to pick on
up!
Art- We made valentine bags and heart pictures this
week.
Writing-We worked on our persuasive essays. Many are at the publishing step. These will be due by the end of
February.
P.E.-We played “Crazy Arcade” this week! Ask your kiddo about that one! ;)
* Below, are pictures of our basketball teams! Both groups did a great job last weekend,
with the girls winning their side of the bracket, and snagging the Consolation
trophy! Way to go Rams!
Have a WONDERFUL weekend!
God’s Blessings,
