Week of December 16 to 20

What We Learned this Week:

Bible: This week, we studied David's sins. We learned the importance of truly repenting and turning to God for His help in our most vulnerable moments. 

On Friday, January 10, the students will be taking the chapter 8 test. I am providing the links to the English study guide so the parents can support their students and the Spanish study guide for the students. The students will get their hard copy on January 6. In addition, I am providing some links to Blooket games that the students can play. The links should be good from now through January 10.

From the Spanish Department:

Announcing the HC Spanish Immersion apparel store coming January 17! More details to come but we are excited about the opportunity to have apparel and gear specific to our Spanish Immersion program. Be on the lookout for more details after break! 


From the Office:

  • Gadgets for Christmas 

Just in case a child receives a smart device or personal tech with connectivity, we want to remind you of our policy to uphold healthy learning spaces throughout HC to the best of our ability.

Personal Technology: Personal Technology is not necessary in a school setting and disrupts the learning environment. Personal Technology includes, but is not limited to, the following:

  • Cell Phones

  • Smartwatches

  • Headphones or Earbuds

  • Personal Laptops

  • MP3-Players

  • Etc. (i.e. Any non-school issued personal technology)

If parents need to communicate with their student, they can send their student an email or call the office and get a note from the office.  Personal Technology items are not allowed to be used or visible during the time a student enters school until the final bell rings. If a student needs to use their phone, they must receive direct permission from a staff person to do so.  


  • Rose Park families 


If you have neighbors, friends and/or family who might be curious to discover Holland Christian, please share this information with them as we have an upcoming information night for preschool and kindergarten, or feel free to simply share the image below: 


  • Holland Christian Discovery Night: Explore and create with your child as you discover more about Holland Christian's preschool and kindergarten programs! Meet the teachers and staff, ask all the questions about the 25-26 school year and watch as your child(ren)'s super incredible curiosities come to life!

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...
