Second Class Levers! Once again, Lynnea taught us scientific knowledge we will use for the rest of our lives.


Kayleigh!

Nathan!

Who's that monkey in the tree?



Happy Birthday Justinian the Great!!

Jill teaches us ballet during Muscles in Motion. Here we were exploring Japanese music and how we could move to it.



Yep, everyone in CC helps clean!

Reston Classical Conversations Orchestra performed various pieces today. Boaz and Nathan were in the violin section.

Revelations 21 reads Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away and there was no long any sea. I saw the Holy City of the new Jerusalem, coming down from heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband....

The wall was made of Jasper and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. The foundations f the city walls were decorated with every kind f precious stone. The first foundation was jasper, the sec0nd sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl...

If we believe in Jesus, that he is the Son of God, we will go to heaven. Heaven is a place with a city called new Jerusalem and the earth will be made new and new Jerusalem will be placed on the earth and we will live with God. It is a promise. When loved ones die who know Jesus we have the wonderful assurance that we will see them again, with God, and perhaps at the wall of new Jerusalem. What an amazing sight!

We made walls and streets of gold today to remind us how precious that day will be!


Nathan held his wall up high!


Justinian the Great made his out of pure carnelian.


Caleb's wall has a decorated pattern.


I'm pretty certain we won't see weaponry on the new Jerusalem wall but just in case Joel added a ballistic site.

Dr. Lynnea, scientist supreme, had us dissect diapers today. Hopefully she'll email me the scientific explanation!

Grace and Ella are wonderful friends.

This is Helena, she made the paper camera for her little sister Bea that was posted earlier. What a great sister!



Jordan worked very hard on her el Greco. Great job Jordan!



Pammy is so beautiful. She helps with our littlest ones each week and blesses moms by keeping an eye on speedy two-year-olds. Thanks Pammy.

Joel expertly dissected a digital camera.



Dr. Travis, MD




Helena, being a monkey.

da Vinci

Helena dissected a roll of tape in art today. We were studying Da Vinci and learned about his incredible ability to study an object and learn from it.



Boaz was so happy about taking apart a cell phone that he now has the parts at home and hopes to reconnect them to make a walkie-talkie cell phone.






Melissa and Travis dissected a digital camera. Amanda knocked on Travis' mom's door to ask her if it was ok to destroy the camera. Diana jumped up and dashed to the multi-purpose room to check. Sure enough, Travis had chosen the correct camera -- but it is always better to verify.

Jake

Jake's family re-created Moses' life for us! Thank you Jake!
