(This issue contains information for the next two weeks)
Our two Bible stories this week are about Daniel. Daniel was faithful to God because he
knew of God’s love and faithfulness to him. God helped Daniel to be strong in the Lord and to resist temptation. God rescued Daniel from the lions’ den.
Next week we learn about being thankful for all that God has given us.
Memory
Wednesday: I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be
praised. Psalm 18:3
Friday: The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. Hebrews 13:6
Coming home with this newsletter:
-
Memory Work list for the next four weeks and an introduction to our new religion unit,
Waiting.

The spelling list for the next five units. Please keep this sheet since it
contains the words that will be on the review test in January.
In reading this week, we will finish our second reader and take a book
test. We begin our third reading unit on Wednesday. We have the main skill of short e (as in jet) and using double consonants _ll, _ss, _ff, _zz after
short vowels (will, mess, puff, fuzz). The high frequency words for the week are: help, now, said, so, who.
In spelling this week, we will be spelling words with the short /u/
sound. Words to be tested on Friday are: fun, us, but, sun, bus, cut, up, cup and two bonus words with the short /u/ sound.
