This webpage was created to keep students and parents informed of happenings at Sanborn Christian School and specifically my classroom. There are highlights of the week to come and assignments listed. Some assignments may change from day to day but this is what next week will look like. Our theme for the beginning of the 2020-2021 year is to finish the Fruit of the Spirit that we began last year before COVID-19 send us home to learn remotely. These nine different character traits that we will finish this year are so vital in the life of a Christian. We should be clothed with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control daily. We must be ready to GO and DO.
Summary of class activity for the week of August 25-28, 2020.
Welcome back to school - I am so excited we are really going to school. I am looking forward to seeing all of you again and spending time in the classroom studying under God's Word to serve Him in His world.
8th Grade
Science
We will begin 8th grade with a brief activity on the student's skills in measuring, estimating, and awareness of scientific tools. Going through the year, we will base all our studies of Science on the Word of God. This is the foundation on which everything else in our lives as Christians rests. Later this week we will spend time going over the steps in the scientific method by doing a few experiments and evaluating our data with measuring the results of our investigations.

Bible
Our first unit in Bible this year outlines the Who? What?, When?, Where?, and How? of the Bible. We will begin with why we refer to the Bible as the story of our redemption and will talk about this being our "Rescue Story". It is by Christ alone that we are saved and the Bible is rich with examples of saving of sinners. Our first memory verse will be written next week. It will be found in II Timothy and the students will receive a hand out this week with their memory work for this unit of study.
