Happy New Year! 2011 is off to a great start for the Tapestry of the Desert Co-op. The Upper Grammar class talked about the Wisdom of Solomon. They dug deep and learned about how we can be wise in our lives. They discussed where we can find wisdom today--in the word of God, of course! And, how can God's word make us wise? It can if we hear it, read it, study it, memorize it and meditate on it. After this spiritual discussion, the kids made royal crowns like Solomon would have worn. When wearing their crowns, they remember that we have a King who reigns in our lives today: Jesus! The Lower Grammar kids also learned about Solomon. They talked about the building of the temple. And, how Solomon was tempted and fell into sin--repeatedly. They compared Solomon to themselves and were able to find some distinct similarities! The boys then made models of the temple and cool crowns to wear. The Five in A Row Class read "The ABC Bunny". It's the classic story of a bunny finding its way home and learning the alphabet along the way. The kids made cute bunny cups to hold their own ABC cards!
