Week Seventeen

Greetings!

Time is flying by; I can hardly believe we are almost halfway through the second semester!  It was good to be back and be welcomed by all the smiling faces.  Thank you for your prayers and concern with the adjustment of Patricia in our family; it is going very well, by the way.  The students enjoyed another great day on Tuesday.  We are close to filling the Memory Marble jar- hopefully that will happen next week!

Science presentations were fantastic!  Gabe told us some facts about Pluto and Mars, Maren presented about a chimp flying on the Mercury spaceship, Abigail brought in a great visual showing the moon phases, Peytra had an interesting presentation about the three types of consumers including food samples- yum!, and Katie shared an impromptu presentation 'All About Me'.

Next week's presentation focus will be on history sentences.  Students may dress in costume, use visuals, or just present some researched facts.  Meredith, Hope, Ryan and Katie are scheduled if it works with your homeschool.

I haven't completely decided on our class presentation for the end of the year, but it will be something to do with the Ephesians 6 passage.  Remember to include that when drilling the other subjects.

I hope the rest of your weekend is restful and relaxing with your families.

Blessings,
Mrs Shaw
