Avery and Rachel - Week of 4/27
This week we had two shadow students come to visit Zion. Their
names were Amanda and Benson. In P.E. we played toga. You use
three balls and run around the gym trying not to get hit by all the
other students throwing balls. Next week in science we will be
having a learning unit about the human body. This week in
science we
got our science test back.
Avery and Mazey Week of 5/4
This week in P.E. we played whiffleball. We had a test in social
studies. We started learning about the human body in science.
Your children continue to bless me in so many ways! I cannot thank you enough for the notes, giftcards, goodies, and most of all sharing your child with me. This is my favorite time of the year to teach, as I see the students have grown so much. They have been leading book club discussions, practicing witnessing their faith, and encouraging each other to meet new challenges as we are in some of the toughest content!
Students were busy this week....

Searching contemporary Christian Music to use for writing a devotion
