CHRISTIAN CHARACTER FORMATION PROJECTThis week we will investigate the virtue of COURAGE. We will read about Jacob wrestling God in Genesis 32. As we try to relate to this passage, we will discuss how our lives are never meant to be easy. This is especially true when we take it upon ourselves to wrestle with God and His will for our lives. Oftentimes fear can overpower us. Through Jacob’s example and through our own relationship and “wrestling” with God, we learn that we can indeed trust the Almighty God and His promises.
I challenge you to discuss our "Big Question" with your child this week... How does trusting God give you the courage to face the fears you are wrestling with?

Library Days: We have a new librarian this year, Mary Sullivan. Please give her a kind CCLS greeting when you see her in the library. Our library day is always on Thursday. Please have your student bring their library book(s) with them on Thursdays to renew or return.

Accelerated Reader is a program we use at CCLS to help with Reading Comprehension. Students may use their login to check reading comprehension on their own books at home as well.
Art: Students will be creating a project that shows how Failure Leads to Success. This is a great point I like to use throughout the year. When we fail at anything in life, we can use that experience to help us improve the next time and hopefully succeed in the future.

Teacher Professional Development Day
CHRISTIAN CHARACTER FORMATION PROJECT
This week we will explore the virtue of self-sacrifice with a rather tough reading from Genesis 22. Last week we learned about how God had made Abraham many promises that seemed impossible to fulfill. However, Isaac's birth had brought great joy to Abraham and Sarah. He was the child they had waited for so long, and yet, this was the child that God now asked Abraham to sacrifice. It must have been painful to even consider. Because Abraham knew God's faithfulness and love, he was ready to give what he loved most back to God. God’s promises and strength make us capable of giving to Him and others.
I challenge you to investigate this virtue with us by having tough conversations at home about how you can give God what matters most to you.

CHRISTIAN CHARACTER FORMATION PROJECT
This week we will return to the virtue of integrity.
Integrity is God's power for you to be true to Him and yourself.
We will study this through exploring when God promised Abraham a son (Genesis 15-20).
I challenge you to discuss integrity at home and to ask yourselves...
How do you stay true to God's promises even when you don't understand God's plan?
Math: In Math this week the students will be working on lessons 7-10 and have our first Investigation on Numbers Lines. Investigation are lessons that are different from the normal 30 problems and explore one specific concept through all the questions.

Reading: Last week students read The Mystery of the Missing Lunch. The reading comprehension skill they worked on was problem and solution. This week we will explore other books where they have to identify problem and solution. Picture books make for a quick read and have so many great discussion points in them! Use these types of books to practice this skill at home too.
