Welcome! // Bienvenidos!

Wow! The ice cream social was such a hit! What an incredible time we had mingling and meeting each other. I am praying over our students, their families, our classroom, and our school as we embark together on this brand-new school year.



Welcome to our classroom blog. I will be sending out the blog to your emails every Friday (most likely in the afternoon / early evening). You will find important information regarding our class- what we are studying, highlights, photos, etc.

Just a few notes!

1. If you have not done so already, please fill scan the QR code to record your child's T-shirt size for Walk-a-Thon.


2. If your child does NOT have a baton, please inform the Office. They will order one for your child. I will keep the batons in the classroom. Have your child bring theirs to school if they haven't done so already!

3. If your child has extra school materials such as packs of glue sticks, packs of pencils, etc. We have two options of what to do with them. They can be kept in my classroom in a LABELED Ziploc. OR They can be kept at home, and the student can take what they need and bring it to school. 

4. The first day of school is on Tuesday, August 20! It's a full day! The students will have PE class right away at 8:20.

5. Parent Night is Thursday, August 22 at 6:30 PM. We will go important points in the handbook and it will be a time for you to ask any questions that you might have.

6. I have put together the parent chaperone sign-up for our upcoming field trips. It's linked at the top of the blog, and I am also including the link here. 


Phew! I think that's it for now. I know it's information overload, but we got this! Please email me with any questions, and I will respond to you within school hours.

What We Learned this Week: Bible:  This week, we studied David's desire to build a temple for God. We talked about how God sometimes says "no" as an answer to our desires. Just like David, we cannot allow that to make us feel bitter. God's will and plan is always good and perfect.  Math:  The students finished up their Unit 3 tests this week. We have started Unit 4 which is all about algebra. We started off by simplifying like expressions. I am including some practice exercises. If your student wishes to practice simplifying like expressions, s/he can complete this page and turn it in. I will provide feedback. Writing:  We are now officially finished with the Persuasive Essays. We look forward to next week when we move on to the Personal Expertise Essay. Social Studies:  The students finished their Geography of the United States Google Slides Project this week. We will be studying movements of people within the United States next week.  February 12 to 23 S...

What We Learned this Week Bible : We are kicking off our Bible class by understanding how Scripture interprets Scripture. We are studying the book of Philippians to do so. We investigated the events that took place during Paul's second missionary journey along with the people he met. Ultimately, we learned that Paul's primary focus was to know Christ even more- which should be our motive as well.  This unit is very short, so the students will be taking a quiz over the material we have learned thus far late next week. However, it is quite possible that the quiz will be pushed to early the following week. The students will be given a hard copy of the study guide, and I am including a digital copy of the study guide here as well. I also like to include links to a gamified version of the study guide. The platform is called "Blooket," and the students should be familiar with it. Here are the game links if your student wishes to play the games: Tower Defense 2 Monster Braw...

What We Learned this Week: Bible:  We have finished up our study on the flawed prophet Samson. We are now studying another story that took place during the time of Israel's judges- the story of Ruth. We have read up on how Ruth and Naomi traveled back to Bethlehem and how Ruth met Boaz.  The students will be taking the Judges and Ruth Test early in the week of September 30 to October 4. I will be providing the students a physical copy of the Spanish study guide on Monday. I am providing an electronic version of the Spanish study guide here . I am also including an English study guide for parent use only. Feel free to use this resource to support your student.  Additionally, I have made a Blooket using the test questions. I am including the game links here as another study resource for your student. Tower Defense 2 Monster Brawl Cafe   Factory Crazy Kingdom Tower of Doom Math:  This week, we have been learning how to use a sum in order to double-check our subtra...
