New Testament Challenge

The students and I all want to read our Bible more this year. To encourage this I have challenged the student to read the entire New Testament before Christmas. If we reach our goal we will have a class party. If we don't reach our goal by Christmas we will celebrate once it has been reached.

They are not being marked on this it is more or less just for fun!

Please encourage your son/daughter in their reading.

Maybe you want to consider joining the challenge too.

I handed out a 30-day reading guide that we are following as "check points" (but we are not following the 30 day timeline).

Microscope Quiz Wednesday

There is going to be a microscope quiz on Wednesday. What you will need to be able to do is label the parts of the microscope and be able to match the 'function' of microscope with its proper part.

So labeling and matching.

Hope this makes sense!
