Spirit Week

We had a very full and eventful week this week! I enjoyed seeing all of the student's dress up and show their school spirit this Spirit Week! Monday was a beautiful day for our annual Kite Day.  Thank you to all the parents who came out to help us fly our kites and enjoy the day with us.

In our Writing time this week, we focused on past, present, and future verb tenses.  We finished out the week by writing a book about ourselves in the past, present, and future.  In Math we learned about 3D shapes and lines of symmetry.  We had fun trying to identify these shapes in the world around us. For Bible we continued our study of Jesus' Miracles and learned how Jesus healed people and provided for his disciples.  In Reading we focused on characters in preparations for today's Character Parade.  It was wonderful to see all the students dressed up as their characters today! We had a great time parading through the school and then listening to some stories afterwards.  The students also enjoyed sharing their characters with their classmates.

Important Information:

1. There will be NO SCHOOL on MONDAY.
