Thought for the Week
This week we learned about David and Goliath and David and Jonathan. After David defeated Goliath, his problems continued. Saul was out to get David and he often had to run for his life. But in the midst of these troubles, God blessed him with a giant joy- an unswerving friendship. The story of David and Jonathan serves as an excellent model of loyal friendship between strong men. Also apparent is Jonathan’s clear perception that David was the one whom God intended to be the next king. Jonathan demonstrated both loyalty to his friend and submission to God’s will by his acceptance of the reality that David was the “heir apparent.” The strength of Jonathan’s friendship is seen in his willingness to speak up for David in the face of his father’s (King Saul’s) jealousy and hostility, even to the point of endangering his life. But most important was the special blessing of a friendship in which they were “one in spirit.” (1 Samuel 18:1) May God bless each of us with such a friend!
 
 
Snacks
From time to time the children forget their morning snack. If you would like send a healthy snack that I could put in the cupboard for the children, I would greatly appreciate it.
 
Things We Are Learning
  • Friendship is a gift from God.
  • Skeletons and muscles help us move.
  • Tens and ones and expanded form and standard form.
  • Colonial communities
  • Reading every day is important!
  • Long vowel sounds
  • Charlotte’s Web is a good book!
 
 
Cold Weather Ahead
As the cold weather approaches (and has already been here this week!), please make sure your child has appropriate outdoor clothing. Hats and gloves are nice on cold mornings! Have you checked the snow pants and boots yet? Make sure your child has some that fit because you never know when they will be needed!
