Co-op in Review: September 11, 2014

This week, our history studies focused on the life of Joseph, Jacob's second youngest son.  The overall theme of Joseph's life is that things that man intends for evil, God can turn into good--and use for His purpose and His glory. Joseph was abused, mistreated and accused falsely--yet God used him in mighty ways, to ultimately save His people.  The Dialectic class made garlands out of stars of David, to remind us of God's chosen people--the Israelites.  The Upper Grammar class and Lower Grammar class both made coats of many colors--by weaving.  The Five in a Row class read the book, "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening,"  the classic poem by Robert Frost made into a children's picture book.  The kids then made scenes of a forest on a dark, snowy evening.
