Day 1

Happy New Year!  It's the first day of the new year!!

And, I decided we need a new plan!

Today, we will ease into a few things and take it from there.

Math - Play this game.  Answer 10 questions, and then write your score down.

Poetry - Listen to Nothing Gold Can Stay by Robert Frost


Literature - Listen to chapter 1 of The Swiss Family Robinson


Bible Study - Listen to today's Bible Study.


Here is Matthew 12:1-8 for easy reference:

 1 At about that time Jesus was walking through some grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry, so they began breaking off some heads of grain and eating them. 2 But some Pharisees saw them do it and protested, “Look, your disciples are breaking the law by harvesting grain on the Sabbath.”
3 Jesus said to them, “Haven’t you read in the Scriptures what David did when he and his companions were hungry? 4 He went into the house of God, and he and his companions broke the law by eating the sacred loaves of bread that only the priests are allowed to eat. 5 And haven’t you read in the law of Moses that the priests on duty in the Temple may work on the Sabbath? 6 I tell you, there is one here who is even greater than the Temple! 7 But you would not have condemned my innocent disciples if you knew the meaning of this Scripture: ‘I want you to show mercy, not offer sacrifices. 8 For the Son of Man is Lord, even over the Sabbath!”
Music - Today we are going to listen to a little Jazz music! This is Miles Davis and his piece called ''So What''.
