This week we learned how Jesus calmed the storm.
We go through many 'storms' in our lives. We can be assured that Jesus is with us, He will help us and He can give us peace and calm the storms.
A LOOK AHEAD:
Memory: John 6:35
Religion: Miracles of Jesus
Spelling: Lesson 20
Phonics: consonant clusters
Grammar: verbs past and present tense
Math: adding two digit numbers
Social Studies: Future inventions for schools
Art:Jim Dine

We are starting to learn about problem solving steps in social situations.
We need to remember to first calm down then begin solving the problem. Ask your child if they remember the ways to calm down.
1. Stop 2. Name the Feeling 3. Special Breaths, Count, Positive Talk
We all need to work on this and will be working and practicing this the rest of the year.
First Graders are still learning to navigate social situations. We get lots of practice and we will keep working on calming down and the problem solving steps. |
I am doing the Children's message this week on the same story! Have your child come and see me!
In HIM,
Amy Bernhardt
