Friday News for the Week of Feb 19-23

This Week:


Reading - Our focus was the Mo Willems books Elephant and Piggy! The students had a blast interacting with those books. They all have such great morals for the kids to learn too! On Friday, the students wrote their own Elephant and Piggy story using the speech bubbles.



This week we also focused on adjectives. We looks at different kinds of adjectives including size, looks, tastes, smells, how many, color, and behavior.


Math: We took some Benchmark Tests this week over Chapters 1-5. the students remembered most of the things and it was great to see how much they have grown in math! We also started with Chapter 6 which is double digit addition!!


Bible: We learned how Israel rejected God as their king and asked for a person king to rule over them. God chose Saul for them and for a while Saul followed after God, but later he started to disobey him. As a result God tore the kingdom away from him and God will choose a new king to rule over Israel.


Again, here’s the pigeon video:



Here’s also some fun videos from Kids Club last week that the students can sing to!
