Another great week! The kids have worked so hard this year! We have been studying the miracles of Jesus and it's been so great to talk about how Jesus was teaching his disciples who he was through the miracles he performed. He was showing them that he was God. He calmed the storm by speaking to the wind and waves, and healed the centurion's servant by speaking, and through the faith the centurion had! How amazing! We spent some time with the Kindergarteners sharing our published stories and they shared their informational books. Lots of fun! Check out the pictures at the bottom of the blog!

   My friends may you grow in grace song! This week has been busy with NWEA assessments and preparing for our chapel. The kids have been working so hard and are excited to present our chapel next Wed. the 18th! The students are amazing and I am amazed at how much they learned so far this year and they keep growing and growing! Our classroom community continues to grow close, just like a family. It has been so great to laugh together, support each other, and pray for each other. Thanks for being an active part of our classroom, and for supporting us in the many ways you do! Martin Luther King Jr. Day :  Monday we will have off school to honor Martin Luther King Jr. Next week, we will have some conversations and lessons about the active work he completed in our world. We will look at how MLK Jr. brought kindness to the world around him and cared so much about people, rather than judging them based on what they looked like. We will talk about the call we have to love others....
