We learned about how God designed plants for survival by dissecting a lily flower this week.
MOVIE CELEBRATION - This coming Tuesday afternoon we will be watching the movie of the book we recently read in our classes, "The Tiger Rising." It will be a fun way to celebrate right before we break for a long holiday weekend. Students may bring along a blanket/towel to sit on, and a pillow OR a stuffed animal to sit with during the movie. Whatever they choose to bring must be able to fit in their backpack.
HOMEWORK - NO homework over the holiday! Of course, it's always important to read and practice math facts anyway, but I'm not asking for them to be recorded and turned in. Also, we are taking the week off from spelling words as well!
ADVENT - In the next few weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas, we will be learning about the season of Advent. We get to experience waiting for our Savior to come as we revisit the stories of the Old Testament leading up to the birth of Christ, and followed by his death and resurrection. Then we recognize that we are still waiting for Christ to come again. In this waiting we find hope, peace, joy, and love - concepts celebrated each of the four Sundays of Advent. In our classroom we will be marking this waiting period and celebration as well. I pray that you will also feel the hope, peace, joy and love that comes in this season!

The Kindergarten classes are getting excited for our annual Cookie Sale, which is coming up on Thursday, December 11th! This year our proceeds will go to the Chan family. Noé and Kathlyn Chan, along with their two daughters Haddie and Alizah, are missionaries in Guatemala, serving God by using their gifts in art and physical therapy. They became friends with Maestra Klipp Lopez while her family was serving in Guatemala, and we are so excited to come alongside and support their family! The Cookie Sale will begin at 9:00am and cookies will cost 50 cents each. Below is more information about the Chan family and their ministry:
