assignments for 5/11/10

Dear Families,

We had an action packed class day. After learning about the Sikhs in India we led the whole school in a small worship service and served them aN Indian meal called Aloo goobi. We spent the morning preparing the meal. Your children are ready to peel all your potatoes for you.

The majority of us are enjoying "The Dog of Knots". We discussed it and looked at a map of Israel to see the localities mentioned in it. We also looked at some pictures of Eliat stones that Uri was buying for his mom. I encouraged the children to make use of the glossary in the back of the book as they read.

We had a good latin lesson and broke into pairs to review our memory work.

Enjoy your week of learning!

love,
Mrs. Tkach
