Greetings brave and determined moms!!!
We are the trail blazers. We are the pilgrims of our time. Kind of exciting and scary all at the same time, isn't it? Not to mention a bit overwhelming. That is o.k, because God called us for this purpose at such a time as this. We are all in this together. Don't forget that.
Sooo...we finally pulled off six weeks coming up and then a nice, needed, break for a week. I know I could use a break.
This weeks presentation is on a famous speech and biography of the famous person who gave the speech or wrote the speech. It can be 2-3 min in length. We are focusing on poise. Poise is the act of being calm and confident. We don't always "feel" calm and confident, however feelings are not reliant, so we instead focus on God's power and strength that gives us confidence when we don't feel it. It is a matter of knowing who you are in Christ. Pictures and props are welcomed. This presentation cannot be put off until last minute. Take time to really get to know this famous speech, so that you can share with the rest of us and we can learn too. I challenge the students to memorize even a tiny bit of the speech.
Our class is doing very well. I am so proud of the character that I see and the behavior that flows from that character. I think the class would benefit from reviewing math facts, geography, latin, and history at home.
Can't wait to see you guys again. Have a wonderful week!!! A blessed week!!
