WEEK OF THE YOUNG CHILD
People were also bringing babies to Jesus for him to place his hands on them. When the disciples saw this, they rebuked them. But Jesus called the children to him and said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”
Luke 18:15-17
I treasure each child in my class and I thank you for bringing them to Zion. Here at Zion your child is given the blessing of learning about their Savior. What a wonderful place to be!

Magic House comes to us and presented a hands on activity,
Saving the Great Outdoors!
Thank you to parents who came to help! |
 |
| We learned how to reduce waste. |
 |
Did you know that if you used a brown bag every day at school for a year the trash would fill a school bus?
One way to reduce waste is to use a lunch box. |
 |
Pastor Reitz had a popular center where the students learned about sorting trash at the dump using electric magnets.
This helps pull out and separate trash. |
 |
| We learned about water pollution and how oil hurts birds. We learned about oil spill clean up and then we cleaned up an oil spill. |
 |
| We learned about water filtration. We filtered dirty water to make it clean. |
 |
| We learned about recycling paper. We even made paper! |
 |
| After the Magic House we did a science journal telling about what we learned. |
 |
| We continue to use tiles to help us build our spelling words. |
 |
| We made a graph to help us illustrate our math facts. |
 |
| We played a fun game of Four in a Row to help us practice the oy/oi sound, |
