• Week of 8/28-9/1
• We've been learning consonants and vowels and reading blends and writing lowercase letters and numbers.  We've been studying poetry for comprehension and reasoning, poetic rhythm and rhyme.  In Bible, we studied the Salvation Series (Christ birth to resurrection).  We had a review and quiz on Thursday and the children did wonderful. This morning we had one child accept Jesus into his heart! In math, The children counted to 100, began addition, and spelling of numbers 1-5.  We've also learned the four cardinal directions, location of USA on the globe, meaning of pledge of allegiance, and all about our great country!

New Life Christian Academy

The first two days of school were filled with fun and learning in the first grade!  We have begun learning our classroom schedule and routine.  The children are working on short vowel sounds and writing letters.  They are counting, working on patterns and sequences,  and they have had a wonderful time sharing their summertime adventures with each other.

I am looking forward to a successful school year.  Don't forget that Monday, August 21, we will be dismissing early due to the eclipse.  Brody brought in glasses for each student to help them view the eclipse safely.  Thank you, Brody!    The main web page has dismissal times listed.  

I hope you all have a blessed weekend!  I will see you on Monday.
