Field Trip to CSI

On November 6th our class went on a field trip to Creation Studies Institute.  We enjoyed learning about Creation, fossils, and dinosaurs.

Pumpkin Unit

Our class loved learning about how a pumpkin grows!  The students especially enjoyed cleaning out the inside of a pumpkin and cooking the pumpkin seeds.  We cooked some of the seeds with salt and some of the seeds with cinnamon and sugar.  Thank you Mrs. Alexander (Hunter's Mom) for coming in and helping the students cook the seeds!  I read the students a book called The Pumpkin Patch Parable.  It was a story about a farmer who turns a simple pumpkin into a glorious sight.  They learned that Jesus can clean our hearts and transform our lives.  God's love can then fill each of our hearts with joy and light.

Firefighter Keller Visits Our Class

Our class was excited to have Captain Keller from the Hollywood Fire Rescue Department visit us and talk to the students about fire safety. It is important to continue the discussion at home about fire safety. This may be a great time to put together a fire evacuation plan for your household.  

Also, as a follow up, local Fire Departments are always open and welcome tours of the firehouse for free. I urge you to contact your local Fire Department to set up a tour for you and your family. God bless. 

1st Quarter AR Celebration

Congratulations to all of the students in our class for making their AR goal for the 1st quarter!  I am so happy that everyone was able to participate in our AR Celebration.  Each student is progressing nicely with their reading.  Thank you Mrs. McGuire, Mrs. DiSorbo, and Hunter's Grandma for helping with our AR Cupcake Decorating Party!  It was a SWEET time of celebrating!
