Bible for week of September 28

This week we will complete the Sept. GCS passage by memorizing John 12:50. I will listen to each child this Friday. The class will also recite the entire passage in chapel at 8:30 this Friday. We would love to have you come and listen to us! In class we will begin the life of David.


John 12:50
“I know that His commandment is eternal life; therefore the things I speak, I speak just as the
Father has told me.”

Homework for Week of September 28

· READING: Homework will come home Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Please encourage your child to observe punctuation and also to read with expression. The strong their reading skills are, the better their written seatwork will become. I will be doing a few changes this week in the reading groups.

· MATH: There will be math homework Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday this week. We will take the chapter test on Friday.

· SPELLING: As last week, the children will bring home a practice test on Thursday to be returned on Friday. We will begin learning to use our spelling words in sentences this week. Encourage your child to give you oral sentences using our words. .

· HOMEWORK: Please be sure all homework is done in pencil, not pen or crayon. Thanks!
