Dear Families,
What a great week we had! Our field trip to CUW was a blast!
This Past Week:
This week we continued our study of Moses and God’s plan for him and how God provided a way for the Israelites a way to leave Egypt through the Parting of the Red Sea. We focused on how God has a plan for each of the students as well. I am using clips from the cartoon Prince of Egypt and the old 1956 movie the Ten Commandments to show some parts of the story. For Reading, we began our next unit Character Studies, which helps the students take a deeper look into why authors wrote the characters in the books they read. In Science, we investigated more about climates around the world.
Next week:
Christian Character Formation Project will be about The Death of John the Baptist. Our virtue is JUSTICE: God’s power for you to do what is right according to His Word. We strive to answer the question: How can you trust God’s justice when someone treats you unfairly?
A peek ahead shows that we have our FIELD TRIP to CUW on Tuesday. In math we continue with MULTIPLICATION and have begun our quest to become a Multiplication NINJA. (IT IS A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE A SET OF FLASH CARDS OF MULTIPLICATION FACTS AT HOME. ) The students have begun their journey to become a Multiplication Ninja and are climbing up quickly We continue our new UNIT: Character Studies. We will continue with Climates in Science.
