The big highlight this week was science! Your third grader learned how to plan and conduct their own investigation collaboratively while producing data to show what they have learned. All these skills are being learned while they explore force and motion using many different objects. This past week third grade used cars and many materials from class to make scientific discoveries. One discovery I discussed with your third grader is how we are a work in progress just like our scientific experiments are. As we become disciples for Jesus and many times there are things that can stand in our way from growing closer to Him. We need to figure that out, much like the obstacles we had to figure out through designing and planning our investigations.
On Friday we had the privilege of leading our 4 year old preschool buddies in a fall activity. We helped them create jack-o-lanterns that share a special message: God picks you from the patch. Then washes all the dirt off you. He opens you up and scoops all the yucky stuff out. He removes the seeds of doubt, fear, and greed if you ask Him to. he carves a smile on your face. Then he puts a light inside of you for all the world to see!
