5.3.12

Mon, Mar 5

Yesterday's Gospel was the Transfiguration of Jesus on the mountain. Today we looked at the three different accounts and compared them. In all three accounts, Jesus took Peter, John and James to the mountain. There his disciples saw him with Moses and Elijah. Suddenly, Jesus' clothes started to glow a dazzling white and a voice from heaven said," This is my son, my beloved, listen to him." We talked about the significance of this event and wrote our own account in our Religion journals. They are keeping track of Lent on a countdown sheet at school, as well as the crosses that are in their homework folder.

CONGRATULATIONS to Isabella B. who is moving on to Bible Reading and to Arianna L. and Gemma N. who are both moving to storytelling. We will be reciting our class poem at Regionals as well on Thursday, March 8. The time will probably be around 11:30 again. Please ensure that your child has a change of clothes (tshirt, jeans, baseball cap).
