Dear Parents,
I have been so blessed the last two weeks to witness how hard I can see that you and your child are working at home, and have been so encouraged by all the collaboration on the facebook page! Thank you for sharing all the great resources that can help a lesson become even more impactful!
This coming week should be an exciting week for us in science, as we begin our unit on earthquakes and volcanoes. We also continue to explore the virtue of obedience! The students seemed to really understand last week that even though Abraham had to leave so much of what was comfortable, what waited for him on the other side were the rewards of obedience to God. This included God making him, "the father of many," (Gen 17:5) and inheriting the promised land!
Don't forget that Monday is no school, but I am looking forward to another week with your child!
Important Info:
Science: Consider checking out books on volcanoes and earthquakes this week! This is a great topic to foster a greater love for non-fiction.
Math: Please continue to work with your child on their addition and subtraction facts. This is so helpful as we add on the challenge of regrouping.
Geography: Our continents and oceans assessment is this coming Wednesday, September 5th! Everyone seems to be more than prepared, but please review the Continents and Oceans map on Tuesday before the following school day.
Spelling: For parents that are new to Fortis, I have placed the AAS Level 1 and 2 Key Cards in your child's binder. Please continue to review these with your child.
Important Dates:
9/3: Labor Day: No School!
9/5: Continents and Oceans Assessment
9/10: Picture Day
Blessings in Christ,
Kelli Poncy
