Happy Birthday Joey!










Happy Birthday Joey!  Thanks for the delicious cupcakes! Today was also picture day.  The students looked precious with their beautiful smiles!

In math the 4th and 5th graders had a quiz and the third graders had their normal assignments. 

 We learned an important concept from Kahn Academy today - that "you can learn
anything!" https://www.khanacademy.org/youcanlearnanything?video=main

In Bible we talked about the importance of the Bible and how we can use it to help us in life and being a part of God's army.  It is our shield and instructional manual.

Please have your student bring their homework sheet back to school everyday.  I will keep track of their completed assignments this way.

In science we took a quiz over chapter 4.  It was open book and with partners. Tomorrow we will begin Chapter 5 "What Factors Affect Your Body?"

In writer's workshop we talked about how an oxymoron and unexpected events can add interest to our stories.  Our book for today was, Picture Day Perfection.  We are also continuing our study in nouns focusing on the difference between abstract and concrete nouns.  Here is a great noun video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kcJzh6gqGM.

Our quote for today is from Dwight L. Moody, "It is a masterpiece of the devil to make us believe that children cannot understand religion. Would Christ have made a child the standard of faith if He had known that it was not capable of understanding His words?"
