Bradley Christian School

Good Morning.

I hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine!

This week we are on days 149-153... or something close. :)

We are continuing the 2 days for math and language arts 1-3 - so we are not close to those days with those books.

Multiplication tables and story writing for 5th.

We are still on our days for reading, along with working on little projects science/social studies. Please make these projects your own. Bring them to life in your family. The guide in the back of the book are just ideas, please expand and modify as you see fit.

Bible: Finish reading Colossians. Please continue on with a 1/2 chapter or a chapter a day with your family throughout summer. If you want suggestions on what to read or if you have questions, let me know!

Bible verse this week : 1 Corinthians 13:1 If I could speak all the languages of the earth and of the angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

Colossians 2:7 Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on Him. 
Colossians 2:10 So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is head over every ruler and authority. 
When our completeness, our worth, our lives are built on Jesus, we are free. He can never be taken from us nor will He leave us. He guides us with love and peace and shows us a different way to live... and it is not as this world lives. 
His way calls us to root down in Him... and He sent us the Holy Spirit as our advocate, our helper because we spent the 4,000 years leading up to Jesus proving we could not do this on our own. So God came to us and through the life and death of His son we were made new. It’s a beautiful truth that I never get tired of hearing.
As I root down in Him, I realize, His helper has been sent to help me with everything. Little choices, big choices, and everything in between. We weren’t designed to rely on powers of this world to make choices for us - we were des…

First Off, Happy Easter!!! Christ is risen!

This week, April 12 - April 16 we will be on days 144-148... at least for reading. I’m going to continue to double up on math and language arts days for grades 1-3 since we are reviewing.

Math for 5th grade, please continue on with 12, 13, 14, 15 times tables (just one a day)- and any other they need work on.

Also, we will be reading Colossians over the next 2 weeks, another letter (or epistle) from Paul. This letter is about how we can make the Good News about Jesus part of our lives and thoughts. We plan on reading about 1/2 chapter per day.

Bible verse this week : Colossians 3:14 Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in harmony.

I just wanted to elaborate on the beautiful scripture we read this morning. Philippians 3:1-11
Paul talks about how there is no human effort that can bring us to God, but that it is a gift given to us because of what Christ Jesus has done for us. And that although Paul, when he was Saul, walked a near blameless life as far as the written law, Paul now counts it as nothing because of what Christ has done - the infinite value in His love for us. And then the clincher: “For God’s way of making us right with himself depends on faith.” -Philippians 3:9. 
And this is where the Holy Spirit... the miracle of the Holy Spirit within each one of us comes to life. Faith being an intangible, untouchable, mystical element is not for us to hold onto or rationalize - the Holy Spirit acts as a bridge for our souls to connect with the mystical... and venture  “into the unknown!” :) yes, I even sang it this morning. 
The Holy Spirit, Jesus’ presence multiplied infinitely because of His death on the cross …

Hey All! How is everyone doing?

We will be on days 138-143 this week.

As we are beginning to wrap up a few things for the school year, I encourage you to find creative ways to learn and grow as a family. 5th grade will finish up their math workbooks this week. After they finish, I would like them to work on their 12, 13, 14, & 15 times tables... and any other they need reviewing. Perhaps just pick one table (1-10) and a second table from the (12-15) group for each day. Feel free to be creative in reviewing anything from the year.

1-3rd Math. If you would like to take a break from math facts and do 2 pages/day from the math workbook, that would work. That is what our family is going to do since they are review pages - but you can decide for yourself. Otherwise, you can finish the last review days over the summer as well.

5th will also be finishing up language arts. When the workbook is done, please finish up the year by writing a story! This can be fiction or based on facts.

1-3 L…

Hey All!

This week we will be on Days 133-137. The curriculum is almost done for the year, congratulations! And I hope you are enjoying reviewing with your family. I hope you are able to explore some of the end of the year projects as well... or a variation that fits your family.

Our bible verse this week: Matthew 28:20 And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.

Also with bible - we are going to read the rest of Matthew 28 tomorrow and move on to reading Philippians, about a half a chapter/day. So will be reading to the end of chapter 2 by the end of the week.

Math facts: 1st= 40+4 to 60+4, 2nd= 60-4 to 80-4, 3rd= 5xs & 6xs.


I pray you are able to use this time to lean into God and know that His grace is sufficient in all circumstances and in all ways. Let Him be everything. Explore your passions that He placed within you, rest in Him, grow as a family - and may He use each one of us to be lights in the broken world.

Good Morning!

Hope everyone is well. God loves you so much.

Just so we all stay on the same days, this week will be days 128-132.

Math Facts:
1st - 30+3 to 50+3
2nd - 50+5 to 70+5
3rd - 3xs and 4xs

Bible Verse : Psalm 39: 7 And so, Lord, where do I put my hope? My only hope is in you.
Psalm 34:4 I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears.

We have such a good Father. I pray that the peace that transcends all human understanding fills your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. We are loved by a Sovereign and Good Father. There is no need to fear.

Blessings!

We need not fear what we don’t know when we know Him. Enjoy the gift of today and our most beautiful Savior. 

It’s crazy, but while we live in a ‘free’ country - many of us live lives that speak otherwise. We are bound by expectations and man-made plans. We do what we do mostly because that is what we are told or expected to do... and then something like this happens where we are given the freedom of time... and choices... a blessing most of us are not sure what to do with. 
I can’t help but spend time right now reveling in the truth that we are created in God’s image... It doesn’t take much exploring of God’s creation to see that we have a very creative God. I truly believe somewhere within each one of us, whether it be building, sculpting, photography, painting, planting, music, crafts, writing, etc - we have a desire to create and explore, a sometimes very buried or hidden desire - but a desire... a yearning in our soul. 
I’m so incredibly thankful for a break from the chaos. An opportunity to slow down and connect with God. I pray with all my heart - as a culture - we are able to let go of …

We are free not because of circumstances but because we are not of this world. (John 15:19) We have a God that can make all things work for the good of those that love Him. (Romans 8:28) I don’t think for a moment that God wants things like this to happen or to see His children scared, but if we are willing to ‘watch in wonder’ we will be able to watch Him take chaos and create light. (Isaiah 55:8 - My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways.) We have a God of infinite wisdom. 
The truth is, He is everything. I don’t think we are reminded of this often enough, not even in our churches. But in this life here, this is just a pixel in the big show. There is more to the story. Death of our earthly bodies is simply our final act of faith here on this earth. We need not fear what we don’t know when we know Him. There is so much more to come... so much better than we can even begin to understand.
Isaiah 29:16 It is a precious cornerstone that is safe to build on. Whoever …

Hey!

We will not be going to Wookey's next Monday, March 23.

Along with pics from a couple weeks ago.

John 14:27 I am leaving you with a gift -- peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don't be troubled or afraid.

Let Him be everything... His grace is certainly sufficient. -2 Corinthians 12:9
