100th Day of School




The younger grades have activities to celebrate the 100th day of school.  The first graders dressed up as 100 year olds, and had a parade to show us their costumes.  Some of our younger siblings and cousins don't seem so young anymore!

Making quipus

In Social Studies, we have learned how the Incas used quipus as a form of record keeping.  After making our own today, the students agreed that we have much easier ways of keeping records today!






Multiplication Facts



The students need to improve in their multiplication facts, so we are using several techniques in class to practice them.  Today, they got with partners and used flashcards.  PLEASE have your child practice his/her facts at home.

A Visual Reminder of God's Forgiveness

We were all excited to have a snow day yesterday, and today we have enjoyed sharing stories of our adventures.  We took advantage of this rare opportunity for a class picture in the snow.

 “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow."  Isaiah 1:18
