Wow, our class has been really busy!  Over the past week we have finished our 6th Math Test and also our first Language Arts Unit. 
Both classes took a unit test to see what we had learned.  In first grade we learned beginning and ending sounds, vowel and consonant sounds, Nouns and Verbs, complete sentences and predicting.
The second grade learned blending sounds that made the long a, e, i sounds.  They learned how to make words plural and what to do with Proper Nouns and Irregular Plurals. 
We received a letter from Faith Baptist School in Germany.  They sent us a picture along with the names to each student.  We look forward to getting individual pen pals from their class. 

We celebrated all our hard work and focus in the first card marking by having a "ball party."  We played a few games with a ball and ate snack because everyone worked as a team to make good choices. 

Please keep practicing spelling words, Bible verses, and Books of the Old Testament.  Be looking for these as they come home.  Thanks for all your help!
