E-NEWSLETTER: January 23, 2012

Proverbial Way:
Ms. Natalie and Wyatt taught about BEANS. Remember BEANS to Be Examples And Not Stressed. Christ said in the bible, “They will know you by your fruit.” The children really remembered the fruits of the spirit that Ms. Christy taught on a couple of weeks ago which was awesome! Heather named Peace and that is the one that Ms. Natalie wanted to speak on. When we have Christ in our hearts we have peace. He promises to always be with us and to guide us through life. John 16:33 tells us that we will have trials in this world but Christ has overcome them and He is with us giving us peace. If we truly believe His word, our peace will be evident to all through our actions. This is a great way to be an example for Christ by having the peace that passes understanding in all situations. 

Announcements:
Teachers – Please be responsible for getting any projects, papers or homework to either your students bags or their parents hands. To my knowledge each child is brining a backpack or bag of some sort. If you will at least get their work into their bag then the mom’s will hopefully be responsible for going through their bag after THX. If one of your students does not have a bag please put their name on it and personally hand it to their mother. Let’s face it, these children age 7 and under are not going to remember something you hand them to take home to their moms. Papers are being left everywhere.

The 5-7 year olds have binders that were originally for Science. Ms. Valerie is putting their papers for Science in them. I am using them for History as well. Please put a divider in the book that says,”History” and Iwill put their papers for history behind that divider. They will not be having homework for history but they will have review cards of what we discussed. So you can test or question them on what they learned and their art work or projects will be in there for you to admire and discuss. If you want to use this as a springboard for your history for them for the week, I have additional books you can check out and projects you can do. Just let me know.

Ms. Valerie has assigned homework for science.
For the 5-7 year olds it is a coloring sheet.
For the 8-12 year olds she wants a list of Amphibians, the number of how old your child is, 8 for 8 year olds etc.

FAMILY CONNECT: January 21st

Hello Fellow THXERS!

Our first Family Connect is tomorrow, Saturday, Jan. 21 from 4 - 7 pm at the May River Baptist Church. This church has wonderful facilities - a full size kitchen, awesome and very large fellowship hall, ample classrooms, and a playground. I am VERY THANKFUL that they have agreed to let us use their buildings!!!!

THX Monday Class Schedule, 2nd Quarter 2011-12

Hello THX family!

Wow, this break has certainly been interesting, bitterweet to say the least. Shelley had her sweet baby and my sweet dad went to live in heaven with our precious Lord Jesus. In the midst of all our ups and downs, life here on earth marches on and so does school.

Hopefully, you have already received the message that Monday classes will not resume until January 9. We made this decision since some husbands have off on Monday due to the holiday being Sunday. Because of this, the Monday classes will be extended to May 7. (The original end date was April 30). This ONLY applies to Monday classes. TUESDAY/THURSDAY classes will still resume on JANUARY 3.

FAMILY CONNECT-January 21st

The Families of THX meet every third Saturday of every month from 4-7pm at the May River Baptist Church. This time will include dinner, fun family games, and a special parent’s meeting.
