Temple Treasures

By Rebecca Snoek | March 12, 2020

We have been learning about King Solomon and all his wisdom wealth.  As a hands on way to learn about the construction of the temple, the class was able to building their own Solomon’s temple.  We read from the Bible how it was built, and after that…. the sky wasn’t the limit as far as …

Is Cursive Writing Still Valuable?

By Sandy Mastin | March 9, 2020

      It is  that time of the year! Students in grade 2 anticipate the development of their cursive writing skills. Finally, the day has arrived and the cursive writing packages are handed out and the learning begins. Students embrace the curves and loops with steadiness and care. As we learn one letter, and …

Cool Cows

By Sandy Mastin | January 21, 2020

    Grade 1/2 has been studying animals, with special focus on God’s creation of the cow. In this part of Ontario, one doesn’t have to venture too far to see a tall standing barn with silos, and cows roaming the fields around it. Because cows are so common, they can be passed over for …

Each Day

By Rebecca Snoek | January 21, 2020

I am learning what a beautiful thing it is to teach, interact with, and “live life” with the students.  As I do, a whole range of emotions usually results. Like the day I said the students could bring their stuffy to school as a treat….. and found this guy sitting in at my desk when …

Heavy Laden

By Rebecca Snoek | December 19, 2019

“Mrs. Snoek, did you cut a tree down on your day off?” asked a student as she saw me walk in to school carrying a stump. “Why is there a stump in the classroom?” The stump in question is the Jesse Tree, a beautiful tradition I learned about only a few years ago.  Each day …

Did You Know?

By Sandy Mastin | December 15, 2019

Professor Sjaarda, a scientist from Queen’s University paid a special visit to our class. We revisited our prior knowledge of States of Matter while engaging in some awesome experiments. As Professor Sjaarda taught us about sublimation, we got to observe the process in action. We also got to see some really neat chemical reactions when …

Genesis in Action

By Sandy Mastin | December 7, 2019

Recently our class had the pleasure of visiting Ripplebrook Farm near Napanee, owned and operated by Kevin MacLean.  Mr. MacLean was prepared and excited to share his farming experience with us. Students learned about all the responsibilities a farmer has in taking care of his animals. Mr. MacLean has 130 dalry cows and calls each …

City Hall

By Rebecca Snoek | November 22, 2019

We have recently started a new social studies unit about our local community.  To help the students better understand the idea of citizens and local leadership, we took a field trip to City Hall. Before our tour we took opportunity to explore Confederation Park, a worthwhile outing for us all.   During our tour, we …

Fulfillment

By Rebecca Snoek | November 18, 2019

We have been enjoying learning about the life and times of Moses in Bible class.  This week we talked about the ten plagues and about the Passover. Yesterday we were able to participate in a very basic version of the Passover meal.  It was a very sensory experience for us all to see how the …

We Remember

By Rebecca Snoek | November 11, 2019

Today, after much preparation, conversation, and thought processing, our class was honoured to lead the Remembrance Day assembly.  I was very pleased with the respect our class, and the entire student body, showed as we remembered veterans and those affected by war. To close our assembly, each student placed a poppy on a cross. In …
