Welcome Back

 Hello Falcon Family!

I hope that your Thanksgiving break has been a restful and peaceful one. It was much needed for me personally. I am very thankful to have had it! I can't believe that we are already into December.

Each Bible class is working on memorizing an entire chapter of the Bible. I too will be memorizing along with my classes. That means three chapters for me! YIKES!! I sure do love God's word so I am excited to do this with them. Please feel free to join your student in doing this. There is nothing sweeter than memorizing scripture with your family. I am so proud of my students and how well they are doing. 

8th Grade Bible: My girls hit their goal with OCC drive!!! I am SO proud of them. They will receive donuts for breakfast on Tuesday and then on the following Monday I will treat them to lunch. Our school beat our goal of 500 shoe boxes!! Thank you to Mrs. Desjarlais who heads this up every year. In class we have been learning about how our government affects our worldview. We will continue this journey as we look at economics and stewardship.  I am looking forward to our homeroom class getting involved in a service project on campus. 

6th Grade Bible:  We will continue our journey with Moses. The girls this week will get creative in ways that we can learn the Ten Commandments and why they are important to us today and in our walk with the Lord. I am excited about a couple of fun games and projects we will play this week. 

10th Grade Bible:  Last week we had so much fun with a group project. Each group researched a country and shared with the class what they learned about that culture, their government, education and religion. Through this students learned ways that they could share the gospel and pray for that country. 

This group gave an amazing presentation on Afghanistan. Two of the students brought clothing and artifacts from Afghanistan. They also made an Afghan dish to share as well as a dessert. GREAT JOB Kami, Gavin, Abigail and Lana!!!

MSHS Drama: It is ALL things Oz!!! And we are so excited. I will post the rehearsal for the week here on my blog. Your thespian should have also received a rehearsal schedule. Please email me if you do not have one and I will email it to you right away! Each week we will have listed who is required to be there each week. Even if it is not required, actors/actresses are encouraged to attend. Rehearsals are held in my room in the high school building and eventually we will move to the stage in the gym. When we are finished your student will come to you in the lower parking lot in from of the gym.

This week: Wednesday Dec. 2nd
