Scripture memorized as a child stays with that individual for all his life; whereas, scripture learned as an adult must be reviewed frequently. For this reason the first grade class is learning several passages of the Bible as well as Patriotic Songs during this school year. This month we are learning portions of Luke Chapter 2, the Christmas Passage. We will very soon compile these works of recitation in a Song and Poetry Book for you. I am very certain you will be amazed!
In science we are learning about the SEED this week. Your student will be eating sugar snap peas, edamame, sunflower seeds, and mixed nuts. Don't be surprised if your first grader will be interested in starting a spring garden next year. Dr. Eidson really inspired us with his vegetable garden. We have already started by sprouting pumpkin seeds in the classroom!
This Thursday, December 6th, our class is scheduled to go on a Field Trip to the CAC. Please let me know if you are available to transport students that morning around 10 am.
I am also in need of the following items:
1- a small bag of your favorite potpourri.
2- a bag of candy for a project to be done at our Class Christmas Party, Dec 21. An email will go out with a list of specific candies, so you can sign up for one.
3- volunteers for our class Christmas Party. Please let me know if you are able to attend and help.
Christmas Program is December 11th at 6:30pm. Hope to see you there!
Mrs. E.
