Good Morning,

I hope all of you are doing well.  I wanted to give you some guidelines that may help with the landmark project. Please go over them carefully.  Thank you and have a great day!


Landmark Project:

These are some things I would like you to have done:
1. Complete the packet that was on google classroom.
2. Your landmark picture that is drawn and colored by you.
Do a nice job. You want to be proud.
3. A poster of your landmark. This can include pictures, magazine cut outs or any other images. Also include 4-5 facts on the poster.

I would like pictures of :
1. Your packet pages in case I use some of them for the book.
2. Picture of your drawing that you colored nicely.
3. Picture of you and your poster.

Hopefully this helps. I am not going to specify sizes because everyone's resources are different. Please take pride in this project. This is one of our big projects for the school year that is being modified because of the circumstances. With that being said I still expect that you will do a wonderful job that you will be very proud of. Thank you.

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank you for the wonderful season of spring. During this sweet time, I ask You for a fresh beginning in each of our hearts. Please allow each of us, as Christians, to bloom in Your word, just as the flowers are blooming. Help us to be witnesses whenever there is an opportunity, and followers of Your word every day. Let our petals continuously grow and our leaves steadily extend, as we work to gather more and more seedlings for Your harvest. In Your precious name, I pray. Amen.



We are moving along through the school year.  I am happy with our progress and we are continuing to grow in many ways.  I appreciate all of the hard work the students and their families are doing to make the school year a success.  I know this can be challenging but we will make the most of it. 

This week I will star all assignments that either need to be emailed to me or turned into google classroom.  Many of you are doing a great job! Continue to work on multiplication facts and cursive writing.  Thank you

God Loves You

God made you and God made me, He made the world for us to see. God loves you and long ago, He sent his Son to tell us so. Jesus showed us many things, To love and share and dance and sing. To learn and pray, to help and care, He promised he’d always be there. He died but then came back to life, let’s celebrate for he’s alive! Amen.
— Unknown
