ITBS Test Week

This week we tested! It's a good thing we rested. Our fingers were aching and pencils kept breaking but somehow we managed to finish.

John 5:17 says, "My Father never stops working, and so I keep working, too!"



 Below you can see that students worked diligently on skills as architects. Teams were formed to come up with a structure made from only toothpicks and mini marshmallows. Seeing the finished products made me very proud of the kids. Some were extraordinary and ALL were unique. ;)

Are you playing tricks or is this really WEEK SIX??!

Time flies when you're having fun! Or when you're so busy you can hardly tell what time it is! 

This week we will have some incredibly excellent activities taking place. Tomorrow we will visit Eagle Springs and its tenants for a fellowship including game playing, jokes and stories, drawing and painting, and much more! It's always exciting to allow students to create friendships with the elderly folks of our community and this experience is no different. 

Thursday, we will have guests on our lawn. Miniature horses! The cutest little beasts of the field I've ever seen. There will be a lesson in care and raising of the sweetie pies as well as a kart ride for anyone who wants one!

I will certainly post photos for y'all to see!

As always, be kind to each other!

Bring On Week 3!

We enjoyed a beautiful week of fun and activities in the great outdoors and now (after Labor Day off) we will begin some real time in class.

The 7-8th graders will be away all week on their Leadership Retreat with Mr. Bryant and Mrs. Goodhew but we will carry on as usual and become more acquainted with our schedules.

Please feel free to contact your teachers if ever you have questions!

Remember: Be silly, be honest, be kind.

Happy Sabbath!
