Hello
5A Parents
I am doing Bible memory in a bit of a new way. The students have all gotten to pick their own Bible memory verse. It has to be at least 8 verses long. They will also have to answer the following questions about the verses they picked. I am not looking for big long theological arguments for these answers. I am looking for genuine reflection on the verses from the students. Feel free to discus and examine the passages with your student.

Homework
- I encourage everyone to read
for at least 15 minutes every night. Also it is beneficial if after they
finish reading you ask them questions about what they just read. This
could include
- What did you like or dislike?
- What happened?
- Who is your favorite character
and why?
- What do you think will happen
next?
- What is the setting for the
part of the book you just read?
- Any question that shows they
are thinking about what they have read?
Bible Memory
I am doing Bible memory in a bit of a new way. The students have all gotten to pick their own Bible memory verse. It has to be at least 8 verses long. They will also have to answer the following questions about the verses they picked. I am not looking for big long theological arguments for these answers. I am looking for genuine reflection on the verses from the students. Feel free to discus and examine the passages with your student.
- Why they picked it
- What does the verse mean
- How does it apply to our lives
as Christians
- What through line or though
lines applies to these verses and why?
Then starting on March 11th the students
are all assigned a day that during out devotion time they will present their
Bible memory verse (they will have to recite it from memory) and provide their
answers to all of the questions. Each student needs to be prepared on their day
to present with their answers already written or ready to go in a power
point.
Bible:
We have started our Jonah and Parables
unit. We will be doing an examination of the Book of Jonah as well as looking
at some retellings of Jonah. Then we will be moving on to learning about Jesus'
Parables and we will be integrating the Parables into our own story
writing unit.
Math:
We are moving into the second math book. Have started
a new PDM unit. There is no homework for this unit quite yet.
