This week:
Wow! What a crazy week! We had a very NOT normal week in 1.1, but it was a FANTASTIC week!
On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, Kindergarten, first, and second graders got to take part on an amazing program called Kid’s Club put on by the MS and HS students for a part of their M-term week. Every day, we met together for an opening ceremony, then separated into music, games, Bible story, and crafts. Over the three days, we learned some pretty cool things about God. We learned that God says, 1. I am with you. 2. I care about you. 3. I will save you.
Music: We learned some pretty fun songs! See if you can remember the motions!
Games: We played 4 corners, tag, and capture the flag
Bible Story: We heard the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego and how they were thrown into a furnace for worshipping God and not bowing down to an idol. We also heard the story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. The final day we learned the story of how Jesus died for our sins and then 3 days later rose again.
Crafts: We colored a picture of the three guys in the fire, made a comfort pillow, and shaded a cross.
Thank you Kid Club team for an amazing week!
Some students even got to perform one of the songs infront of all the HS and MS students!
Mrs. Harris’s last day:
Today was the last day Mrs. Harris will be with us in the classroom. She has finished her requirements for practicing teaching to become a teacher. We enjoyed having her in the classroom and we will miss her! Blessings to you as you go on to have a classroom of your own someday.
Writing: We started a new writing unit of information and research writing. We started with writing “All About Something.” We picked a friend in our class and “interviewed” them to write all about them: what they look like, what they like, about their family, etc. We are working up to writing a research paper about a favorite animal.
Math: We finished Unit 7 this week with review about telling time to the 5 minutes, place value of ones, tens, and hundreds, symmetry, and 3D shapes.
We won the ICE CREAM PARTY!! Thank you to everyone that sent food in for the Okinawa Food Bank to provide food for families in need.
