January 22nd - January 26th

Recap of what we learned last week:

Bible Study - We celebrated National Lutheran Schools Week! We spent time working through devotions with our 4th grade buddies talking about how we are connected to Christ, connected to the Father and His Creation, connected to the Spirit and His fruitful gifts, connected to the church, and connected to His commission. We focused on the following Bible verses: 

John 15:1-5

“I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. 5 I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.”

ELA - We continue to focus on letter names, letter sounds, and handwriting skills. We have made it through all the letters of the alphabet. Students are blending and reading not just words but phrases and short sentences. Students continued practicing that sometimes letter s tries to trick us by borrowing letter z's sound. Students also learned that 's helps us to know owership and we learned that sometimes an s at the end of the word makes it mean more than one. Students have been working to read words with 4 and 5 letter sounds. We also continued working on our "pinch and tuck" pencil hold.

Math -We took a break from our regular curriculum and just practiced some math skills rather than full lessons. We will return to our regular curriculum next week,

Social Studies - We traveled to Australia each day! It was a long (pretend) flight but we were excited to learn about how Australia is similar and different from Hawaii. We also got to meet children who live in Australia and shared about their lives there.
