Last Week Before Spring Break

Hey Everybody, are you ready for one last week of learning, growing, interacting and living for the King?  Spring break will be here before you know it, but let's squeeze in a bit more fun school work before we have 2 whole weeks to rest, relax and do whatever we want.

There's a few changes to the schedule this week that I will discuss, but first, let's watch this fascinating video about a boy who went to heaven.  I highly recommend the book written by his father, Todd Burpo, called "Heaven is For Real".

Let's pray in small groups today.  Please pray for the person on your right.  If you have any requests, please share them but make sure that you are thanking God for the great people he has chosen as your classmates.  

The other exciting thing we have to look forward to this week is REPORT CARDS!  I spent a great deal of time working on them this weekend.  I didn't really "enjoy" it, but I do like taking the time to focus on each one of you as an individual and see the results of a trimester's worth of schooling.  I try to make comments that will encourage and motivate you for the LAST TRIMESTER OF GRADE 7!!  Can you believe it?  You will be in the Secondary next year and the Elementary will just be a distant memory.  Mrs. Robideau?  Who was she?  Oh, yes, she was my grade 7 teacher.  

Now, believe it or not, we are ready for students achieve!  Instead of a homework sheet this week, I am sending home a letter with your passwords and your parents' passwords on it.  This morning we will have time to check it out and get familiar with how it works.  

I also have signed you up for a Math website that gives you excellent practice in fractions.  Yay!  Let's get to it. 

One of the other options today is to complete an art assignment.  Yay!  Here is the link:  How to Draw Cartoon Expressions  Once you've seen this first one, try some of the many other expressions along the right side of the screen.
