Chapel Families, Memory, and Fall

The story your students brought home to read on Tuesday was "Henry and Mudge Under the Yellow Moon."  We talked about leaf colors, the fall season, and the yellow moon.  Since the moon does not have light of its own to "shine" it takes on the glow of the sun at certain seasons of the year.  The yellow moon of Fall is one of those times.

We used those Fall colors today to create a type of mosaic.  Your student can tell you how these fall color master pieces were created.

We have also been working on creation pictures for Religion class since the first week of school. Those pictures & what we like about our drawings of God's creation are hanging in the hallway too.  

The students create journal entries in their notebooks and I publish those with the picture they drew. Our latest stories involve a little girl named Carla and how she helps a neighbor with her pet cat. Carla's mother notices how responsible her daughter has become and offers to let Carla have her own pet.  What will Carla pick?  Check out our drawings and stories in the hallway to find out!
