Happy Friday!! Hope that you are all well and staying safe and healthy.
I would like to thank you again for your patience as I am playing the "catch up" game on grades and assignments. I am grateful for your grace.
Please check teams if you have questions about assignments or what is due. Your students know how to long onto teams check this. When we have a test a study guide will always be on teams as well.
We are now into the second quarter. There will be no more warnings and NO more second chances. When students come to my class unprepared, meaning coming to class without their books, Ipad, prayer journal and Bible they will be given detention. Students MUST have a composition book for their prayer journal. If you cannot get one please let me know and I will be happy to provide one.
Grades will be entered in every Friday and Monday (if a test or assignment is due on Friday). If your student is behind or failing I am always willing to give extra credit work for them to do.
6th Grade is collecting items for our Date Night Basket that will be auctioned off at the fall festival. Each student is to provide one item for our basket. I appreciate the help with this. All proceeds from our fall festival will go to purchase 15 passenger vans for our school. (YAY)
Each week I will be highlighting a different class and BRAGGING on them. Let's start with 6th grade.
6th Grade Bible (Boys and Girls)
Last quarter we learned about worldview, what it is and how we gain a worldview. This quarter we are diving deeper into scripture and how our relationship with God is a reflection of worldview. We are starting with a foundation of faith. We discussed what our foundation should be built on, the Word of God. Your students discussed the difference in an absolute truth (solid) and opinions (shaky). Our foundation as believers is built on the absolute truth of who God is. This week I will share with you some pictures of the boys getting creative and building a foundation. As we made it we shared scripture about building our house on the solid rock. We discussed that how reading our Bible, prayer, mentors and self study strengthens and supports our foundation. The boys really enjoyed it.
PLEASE send a shoe box full of lego's (labeled with your students name) to school with your 6th grade student. We will be using this to build our house of faith as we study God's word. Lego's will be sent back home when we finish this unit. Please email me if you have any questions.
I hope that you have a wonderful weekend!!
In Christ,
Nancy Williams
