100th Day Posters - Materials Needed
The 100th day of school is fast approaching!  Please look for a Ziploc bag inside your child's Friday folder.  Inside will be directions for a project that we will be doing in Art class on Friday, January 31st.  You can send the materials needed anytime next week, as long as we have them all in by Friday's Art time.  If you have any questions, please let me know.


Religion
Memory Work for the Week of January 27th ... more song lyrics for "He Knows" which will be sung in church on Sunday, February 2nd:


Tuesday (First and Second)
I'll walk through this life with Him, through hello's and good-bye"s.
I'll follow Him and look for joy in every new surprise.


Thursday (First and Second)
I can only see one step.  It's all I need to see.
I know because He said the words, "Just put your trust in Me."


Friday (Second)
I love the house where You live, O Lord, the place where Your glory dwells.  Psalm 26:8
