End of Unit 2 Celebration: January 4, 2011

We learned so much during Unit 2 of Year 1. We studied ancient civilization such as China, India and Greece. We also learned a lot of Bible History. We learned about Joshua and Caleb, Hannah and Samuel, the Judges, Ruth and Naomi, King Saul and the life of David, both as a boy and as Israel's King. We learned about the sinful nature of man and God's overwhelming capacity for forgiveness and love. We learned what God looks for in a leader. He does not look at appearances and outward strength, he looks at the heart! To celebrate all we did this unit, our co-op families and friends gathered together on the evening of January 4. The kids recited their memory work. The Tapestry Classes recited "Angels from the Realms of Glory" while the Five in a Row kids said the poem, "The Candy Cane." Afterwards, the kids displayed the work they accomplished over the past two and a half months. Way to go, Tapestry of the Desert families!
