What’s
Happening in Class?
·
Bible: We begin a study on the life of Moses.
Memory verse for January 29th is: Hebrews 11: 24-26 “By faith
Moses, when he had grown up, refused to
be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter. He chose to be mistreated along with
the people of God rather than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a short time.
He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the
treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.”
·
Reading: This week we will complete reading
and discussing, Crispin. Last
week we paused on reading for a couple of lessons to work on our whimsical tree
winter art project. Today we resume reading Crispin;
we should finish today or tomorrow. I
will be giving students details about our Renaissance Street Fair this
week.
·
Language Arts: Last week we began a grammar study of
identifying parts of speech within a sentence. Thus far we have covered nouns
and pronouns and will continue to work through these packets in class. This
week we will be working on identifying adjectives and adverbs.
