Chapel/Bible Our skits were such a success!  What a blessing to be able to share our love and need for Christ through drama!  They truly worked so hard and showed their skill and maturity through it all!
Reading The Tales of Despereaux is continued to be read in class.  A short comprehension quiz over the chapter(s) read is (are) given daily. The reading log will not be due until next month so keep reading!
